Once you get the hang of making your own veggie-pâté, you'll never want to be without it!


TIP

* Nutritional yeast is not bread yeast. You will find it in the form of small yellow flakes. It is inactive and therefore cannot act to make baked goods rise. It is a very nutritious yeast, rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals.

This veggie pâté freezes very well. Simply cover each ramekin tightly. Then allow to thaw in the refrigerator before use.
