Course Details

The Depanneur’s resident vegan maven, Emily Zimmerman will share various techniques including manipulating texture, tricks for marinating, braising, steaming, poaching, and fermenting for the tastiest results. Emily will also talk about to shopping tips for building a versatile vegan pantry.

And what better place to start than with breakfast? Emily’s menu includes a killer homemade vegan & gluten free omelette and scramble base using Dosai mix – a blend of lentil and rice flour, turmeric, black salt, nutritional yeast, agar, and arrowroot.

Along the way you’ll meet affordable, versatile and high-protein ingredients like dried yuba (tofu skin), which with the right smoky-sweet marinade, makes a fabulous vegan bacon.

You will also learn how to make a tasty vegan sausage with kasha, sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms, both as braised patties made with gluten flour, pan-fried with potato starch, and a yuba-wrapped, steamed sausage.

You’ll finished off with luxurious poached pears with ginger alongside home-made coconut yogurt.

Participants will leave with tofu-egg spice blend and coconut yogurt starter to keep you cooking once you get home.

The Dep is a unique food venue that hosts an eclectic range of food events.

Founded in 2011 by Len Senater, The Dep is an ongoing, evolving experiment, prototype and proof-of-concept exploring food’s role in building community, creating opportunity and celebrating diversity. It has evolved over the years into a kind of convivial urban food hub where food producers, creators and consumers can connect and explore new food ideas in a fun, informal setting.

To find out more about The Dep, you can check out what others have written (like Spacing Magazine or Yonge Street Media), read some customer reviews (4.6 out of 5 stars!), or dig into my own slightly ranty manifesto.

In early 2016, the Dep extended an invitation to newly-arrived Syrian refugees who found themselves stuck in hotels for many weeks, with no access to kitchens to cook for themselves or their families.

This blossomed into the wildly successful Newcomer Kitchen, a non-profit social enterprise that invites newcomer women to prepare and sell meals in a fun, social setting, while earning revenue through dignified, meaningful work.
