  3. Going vegetarian does help the earth to some extent as we stop eating animal meat and save the animals.But there is a basic food chain which will go on.We can start at least being vegetarian once a week.

  5. Thanks for the recipe!!! Love it. Fresh or frozen local abalone is cheaper but will never give the same taste, flavor and texture as canned abalone. I love the flavor and taste of canned abalone and one day I want to eat abalone like 'abalone kings' do: braised in sauce and served whole, like a steak, washed down with a good white wine. Cut with a knife and fork of course. Meantime, it's still cheaper to slice abalone thinly and share with the family. I love this dish. It's such a special treat

  12. Hi
    I used Pure Vegan B12 spray.There is also a cheaper version that does not advertise vegan but says so on the label called Pure Advantage B12. The ingredients are identical.

  13. Although this is an ideal vegan dish I doubt mock abalone is available in Australia. I just think Buddhist food is mostly oriental. :)
