Pangiallo Romano Healthy

Pangiallo Romano Healthier No-Glaze Version

VeganVegetarian

The Pangiallo Romano, literally “Roman Yellow Bread,” is a Roman dessert typically with a golden crust. This is a healthier version, so no yellow crust, fewer calories.

This seasonal recipe reminds me of the Christmas cake we have in Panama, my hometown since it shares some commonalities, such as candied and dry fruits and nuts. What makes it very different is the presence of chocolate, honey, and saffron.

I made two versions: a traditional one, where I only changed the only non-vegan ingredient to make it vegan: Maple Syrup in place of honey.

Pangiallo Romano (Roman Christmas Cake)

VeganVegetarian

The Pangiallo Romano, literally “Roman Yellow Bread,” is a Roman dessert typically prepared on the Winter Solstice day as a good omen hoping that the sun will return soon. For this reason, it has a golden crust. It has a lot of ingredients, but it is effortless and fast to prepare.

We recently moved to Milano, immediately after the second lockdown, decreasing our chances to get to know people in the region; so we knew the holidays were going to be very lonely. We had the option to visit friends in Rome before the Christmas lockdown, and we took it without thinking twice!

Vegan Golden Milk

Vegan Golden Milk Recipe

VeganVegetarian

Golden milk, Latte Oro— also known as turmeric milk —is a traditional Ayurvedic Indian drink. It can be as simple as mixing milk and ground turmeric.

We aim to make plant-based versions of our favorite foods we are also fans of all the vegetable kinds of milk out there, we changed that traditional cow’s milk for rice milk and added a few aromatic ingredients. We love having golden milk a couple of times a week to replace our morning plant-based late coffee.

Health Benefits of Turmeric Milk

The golden milk health benefits vary from overall body healing to its anti-inflammatory properties, mostly thanks to curcumin found in turmeric and the ginger we add in this version and the ginger.

Turmeric has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years to treat joint pain, fatigue, and digestive issues, amongst other conditions.

Modern research also suggests that turmeric is a potent antioxidant, heart disease-fighting, and anti-cancer effects.

The other spices in golden milk are also health-promoting! Ginger, cinnamon, and cloves are also known for their anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer benefits.

4 Benefits of Turmeric Milk at Night

  • The Benefits of Drinking Turmeric Milk at Night can help in accelerating recovery. Turmeric milk allows for the body’s repair work to function optimally.
  • Drinking Latte d’Oro – as it is called Italy – can improve hormonal balance. It can be helpful as a remedy for acne and unpredictable periods.
  • A cup of Turmeric milk at night can be beneficial for people who get restless during sleep. People whose rest breaks multiples times for using the bathroom can also benefit by drinking a cup of turmeric milk at bedtime.
  • Turmeric can boost immunity. I would recommend drinking golden milk during season changes, to protect yourself from cough, cold and flu.

Drinking Turmeric Milk Benefits for Skin

Curcumin has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, which do help in combatting acne and clarifying the complexion.

The turmeric derives its bright yellow from a component called curcumin. Curcumin has protective effects against skin-damaging chemicals and environmental pollutants. Remember that consuming Curcumin may help to inhibit the immune pathways responsible for psoriasis, it means Golden Milk may help preventing oxidative stress in the epidermal skin cells responsible for producing melanin.

We know that the skin is more prompt to get blackheads and acne when its pores are blocked by oil, dead skin, and external pollutants; drinking turmeric milk for the skin can help prevent acne.

Note or Curcumin’s Absorption and Black Pepper

Is essential to add a bit of black pepper whenever consuming curcumin in order to boost its absorption. Both, black and white pepper contain piperine which is the active component that fulfills this role.

Most studies relate specifically black pepper to the consumption of curcumin. White pepper contains as much peperine as black pepper, suggesting it may also enhance curcumin’s absorption, I was not able to find a study that directly links the two, so I would stick to black pepper.

Red Pepper comes from a different plant and contains minimal amounts of piperine.

Below you can find our vegan golden milk recipe, perfected over time as we played with various delightful Indian spices.

The Leche de Cúrcuma or Leche Dorada, as it is called in Latin America, is a remarkably delicious beverage with great health benefits.

We made part of our Christmas morning breakfast this past December. This Vegan Golden Milk is a very soul-warming drink, it is like hot chocolate but healthier. We spiced it a little more to make it more festive. It goes perfectly with all the aromas of a homemade Granola.

This healthy veggie casserole is full of flavor, it has the looks and makes a great holiday dish as well.

This vegan veggie bake features soft sweet potatoes and eggplants both of which have great health benefits.

5 Sweet Potatoes Health Benefits you didn’t know

  • They are Highly Nutritious as they are a great source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

  • Promote Gut Health. The fiber and antioxidants in sweet potatoes beneficial to gut health.
  • Support Healthy Vision.

Some Eggplant Health Benefits

The benefits of eating eggplant include:

  • Improved bone health: the compounds that make up for the purple color in eggplants have been linked to reduced osteoporosis, stronger bones, and increased bone density.
  • Prevents anemia: it is very important to pay special attention to iron intake. Not getting enough iron in your diet can be very dangerous to your health. As vegans, we need to ensure we get the right amount of iron as it is more commonly found in animal products.
  • Helps with digestion: eggplants are high in fiber meaning that eating eggplant is a great way to improve gastrointestinal health

Ingredients
 
 

Layers

  • 2 sweet potatoes medium, very thinly sliced
  • 2 eggplants medium, very thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons sea salt coarse
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil extra-virgin

Lentil stew

  • 8 ounces lentils
  • 5 ounces spring onions chopped
  • 3 ounces celery chopped
  • 3 ounces fennel chopped
  • 2.5 ounces leek chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves chopped
  • 4 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 3 teaspoons oregano dried
  • 1 sprig rosemary chopped
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon ground
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt adjust to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper adjust to taste

Vegan Bechamel Sauce

Optional:

  • vegan parmesan to grill check the recipe
  • To Serve:
  • Green Beans check the recipe

Instructions
 

  • Soak the lentils for 15 minutes in warm water.
  • Preheat the oven to 400º F (200ºC).
  • Lay the eggplant and sweet potato slices on an oiled pan.
  • Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and roast in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Make the lentil stew by heating the oil in a saucepan.
  • Add the chopped onion, leek, celery, fennel, garlic. Sautee for 5 minutes and add the lentils and 30 fl oz of water.
  • Add the tomato puree, nutritional yeast, and spices.
  • Stir until the lentils are soft, but don’t let them lose their shape. It should take about 15 minutes. The stew should be on the drier side but still creamy.
  • Line up your eggplant and sweet potatoes and along with your lentils.
  • Oil a pan where you are going to assemble the casserole.
  • Start making the bechamel by melting the margarine on a saucepan and adding the flour.
  • When it starts to brown, cook it for 1 minute more and add the vegetable milk.
  • Stir with a whisk until it starts to get creamy. Add the nutmeg, salt, and pepper. This sauce gets sticky very quickly, so; you should make it just when everything is ready to assemble. It all should take no more than 20 minutes.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350ºF (175ºC).
  • Start assembling the dish by arranging the eggplant and sweet potato slices in the bottom of a medium baking pan.
  • Continue by laying a layer of lentil stew, followed by a layer of bechamel sauce.
  • Add another layer of sweet potatoes, then eggplants, lentils, and finish with bechamel sauce.
  • Optionally top with grated vegan parmesan or regular one for a vegetarian version.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes. Test to see if the sweet potatoes are tender by inserting a sharp knife down through the center. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

If unsure about the cinnamon, you can either skip it or add a tiny pinch to the already prepared lentil stew and try it before you put in the whole stew. I totally recommend it; it takes it to another level, but understand lots of people don’t fancy cinnamon.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 cup cranberries dry
  • 1 tea bag ginger or cinnamon tea
  • 5 cloves
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup or agave syrup
  • 3 cinnamon sticks
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ginger grated
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Optional (and recommended):

  • 1 clementine or orange

Instructions
 

  • Place the dry cranberries in a bowl with 1 cup of hot water and a teabag for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a pan with a drizzle of coconut oil and add the drained cranberries.
  • If using the clementine, add the freshly squeezed juice and cinnamon, sticks, and cloves. Cook, stirring regularly for around 5 minutes.
  • Add the ginger.
  • Once the cranberries start to wilt, add the nutmeg and simmer further. You can add water if the cranberries are drying too much.
  • Next, add the maple syrup and taste. Cranberries are sour, and you want to get the sweet just right. You may want to add more syrup.
  • Continue to simmer; at this stage, it should look more like a cranberry jam.
  • Remove the cinnamon sticks and the cloves.
  • You can add to a jar, cool down, and store it in the fridge for later, or serve immediately.

  • Round baking pan

Ingredients
 
 

  • 3 cups flour 0 Flour = strong flour
  • 4 tablespoons vegan butter or margarine
  • 1/4 ounce dry yeast about 2 teaspoons
  • 1 teaspoon salt fine
  • 1 cup almond milk or any other vegetable milk
  • 3 rosemary sprigs

Optional:

Instructions
 

  • Warm the milk and add the yeast and the agave syrup. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, mix the flour and vegan butter.
  • Add the yeast milk and salt. Mix well.
  • Knead until a smooth elastic dough forms, for about 20 minutes.
  • Brush the dough with margarine, cover the bowl with a plastic wrap, and set it somewhere warm to rise for two hours until it’s doubled in size. I like to let it rise overnight for them to get fluffier.
  • Lightly grease a baking sheet for your rolls.
  • Prepare a cake pan.
  • Knead the dough for another two minutes and then start forming your 1-inch diameter buns. Take off pieces of the dough and create balls by pulling the edges down so that the top becomes smooth.
    Vegan Christmas Buns
  • Layout the buns on your baking pan, brushing them with extra margarine, leaving some room between them to allow them to rise.
  • Cover again with the same plastic wrap and allow the rolls to rise again for around 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 Fahrenheits.
  • When it’s finished its second rising, brush with bread margarine, put some rosemary sprigs on it and bake for 25 minutes, until the rolls are golden on top.

Notes

Enjoy! We like eating them hot. Feel free to put them in the oven for a few minutes to reheat them before serving.
