#TIL about a really high quality and expensive #vegetarian meal in #Japan called Shojin Ryori. It's a vegetarian cuisine that's prepared at Buddhist temples and is mostly found in Kyoto. You will need to reserve ahead of time for these. #Vegan#Japanese
And just to keep things healthy, she posted a Garlic Dal (Lasooni dal tadka). Healthy, delicious, garlicky, and, best of all, can be made in a pressure cooker.
I decided to be #vegan for the week of #PyConUS 2024. I put little effort into this endeavor but I did think about it during each meal.
I'd like to share how it went, but first I'll note why I did this.
Since early 2020, I've been attempting to gradually reducing the animal suffering I cause (as much as I'm individually able to).
I focused one-by-one on small habit changes that had large impacts (e.g. I completely cut out chicken first). After ~2 years of this, I was #vegetarian.
