(My last name is Fox and it was a song on the first mix cd Adam made me)<br /><br />I've been thinking that changing the amount of oil might help, too. It can be tricky! And I may have to try adding a binding agent next time. Thanks for the suggestions guys!Cassie - Vegan Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712270785057036417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152317136668245745.post-53118455502142057472010-01-28T11:10:55.917-06:002010-01-28T11:10:55.917-06:00That looks like a plate of total YUM!

I have hit or misses all the time with vegan burgers.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16932360983765353619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152317136668245745.post-40444632862855050682010-01-28T09:11:43.189-06:002010-01-28T09:11:43.189-06:00hey, stopping by your site for the first time, too...hey, stopping by your site for the first time, too. i love your b&s-reference name (if it's a b&s reference...)! <br /><br />we frequently fail at frying bean burgers. i think the key is to either use tons of oil or no oil. something in between just doesn't seem to work. i like isa's idea of putting some oil in a spray bottle and then just coating the pan surface. i guess you could brush it on as well... either way, oil is the main culprit in my experience. these look good, though - hell, if they were put on my plate, i'd eat them!weeseaweedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17310256693091158698noreply@blogger.com
