A veganised twist on the viral salmon and rice video
Plant-based seasoning brand, Yondu, has created a healthy and quick meal which is a twist on the viral TikTok video of salmon and rice created by the influencer, Emily Mariko.
The meal is easy and includes the signature microwaving of an ice cube as well as mashing up some leftover protein (in this case tofu) and rice. The final creation mirrors a Korean Jumeok Bap and is full of flavour thanks to Yondu’s Vegetable Umami.
