Vegan Quenelles de Saumon

[Vegan Salmon Quenelles]

...I think this is the last of the quenelle recipes...I do like this little pillowing dumplings too...and you use exactly the same proportions and method as given in the master recipe for the VEGAN QUENELLES DE POISSON...
...and I needed some vegan salmon for this one...so I made some Vegan Lox...
...and just shredded that with two forks...

...and you'll need a Cream Puff Paste VEGAN PÂTE À CHOUX...
...form your quenelles...and drop them into a boiling broth...I think last time I just used water and nori...this time I also added some veggie broth to make them a little bit more flavorful...
...and then make your cream sauce...vegan cream, salt pepper, lemon juice and vegan cheese...I thickened it slightly with some cornstarch...
...pour that over the quenelles...
...and run it under the broiler...
...these were good...served with a salad, crusty bread, and spinach...

Substitutions:
Vegan Lox for the salmon Vegan Butter...we used Earth Balance...
Vegan eggs...we used Just Egg for the yolks and Aqua Faba for the whites
Vegan Cream...we used Silk cashew cream
