Hello! I love empanadas and I always make (vegan) empanadas and they turn out great! I'm a 'baby' vegan so I'm still learning about ingredients and additives in foods that may or may not be vegan so when I saw this video and saw all the replies about the L-Cysteine I had to ask. I e-mailed Goya foods this morning and they replied very quickly regarding the source of their L-cysteine and their reply was 'In response to your inquiry the L-Cysteine is derived from mineral source not animal source.' If anyone knows of any other questions to ask to make sure they are vegan can some please either suggest any or e-mail them directly and post it please. thank you!
I'm sooo glad I found you🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾I LOVE vegetarian empanadas. I'm definitely going to try your recipe. SweetEarth brand makes an awesome cuban vegetarian version. You're beautiful woman!!! Love Latin food in general. Peace, power, & love🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I was so excited to try these until I went to the grocery store and found out the Goya discs have L-cystine in them which is derived from human hair, duck feathers, cow horns and pig bristles. I may and try and make a dough myself though. Thank you for sharing. I still appreciate it!
Awesome, I make these all the time. Question, what cheese did you use for the pizza ones. Those were also my favorite but I haven't found a vegan cheese I like.
Yahaira Perez it’s actually some sliced vegan cheese that I buy here in Italy I just cut it up into shreds. Have you tried daiya, so delicious, or chao vegan cheeses?
I tried So Delicious with the pizza ones yesterday! Thanks! I just liked how your cheese looked very creamy. Yum! I also binged watched all your videos and was craving the guayaba and cream cheese quesito (that’s what we call them) so I made them in empanada form and yummmmm! Love your videos!
Yahaira Perez been trying vegan cheeses for like 8 years and Chao slices are my favorite , my parents buy that brand too and aren’t vegan at all, taste like American cheese and they have other flavors too.
There is a newer version that uses corn-flour and L-cysteine hydrochloride as the dough conditioner instead of whey. L-cysteine is produced from animal or human hair, however, it can be produced synthetically. There really is no way to be 100% sure unless you contact the company directly whether or not is synthetic.
another alternative is to check your store for "mandu pi". it's very similar, and my grandma used to make her own dough but i ain't got time so i use that instead and it's perfect. we have a brand that's made locally here and it's completely vegan. i'm sure you can find a good one. do not use gyoza wrappers, they are thinner and not the same.
Late but, my girls family makes them from white corn and it’s amazing. They use a manual grinding machine and it never disappoints. Some queso Blanco ( not vegan) and chocolate milk made from Colombian chocolate and I’m in breakfast heaven. I digress, Goya supports some shady things, I won’t get into,so any chance I get I will make them with the family. Also, no hair in your food 😉
Pamela Medina hey! Thank you so much! I’ve actually never tried it, but I don’t see why not. Maybe try a few and see how it goes. Let me know if it’s a success! 👍🏽
Thank you! My girlfriend is vegetarian and I’m Puerto Rican. I have been trying to show her my culture through food and it’s been so hard. So glad I found you
This is NOT Vegan. Delicious, but no vegan. Mozzarella cheese is dairy n the empanadas are filled with whey which is dairy by product. You can research n make ur own dough n use different cheese n make a true vegan meal ❤️

My husband and I just became vegan. We are so excited that we can still enjoy the food we grew up eating. Thank for all these videos.
You are so beautiful! Thanks for the video!!

It can also be derived from a plant-based fermentation process.
Empanadillas yumm! Will make these tonight.
Bárbara F oooh yay! I’d love to see! If you have an IG post a pic of them and tag me 👍🏽👍🏽
Looks DELICIOUS. Can't wait to make!!!
Do you recommend re heating in an air fryer?
Love your videos, about time, I've been searching for a Puerto Rico Vegan Chef. I will continue to support your videos. God's Blessing.
Thank you sooo much!! ❤️
Living Plantfully your welcome 💖
Can this be done in the oven?
What brand of package of Pastry dough for turnovers discs did you buy? I keep seeing in my local supermarket disc that contain beef or chicken broth.
i actually like the background music! keep doing your thing girl, this series is amazing!
Thank you so much!!😘
Love the music, it's pretty chill
What brand of vegan mozzarella did you use??
The DNalls it’s an Italian brand, they were actually slices of cheese but I just cut them up into shreds lol 😜
Daiya should work just fine though, I use it on my pizzas. I'll be uploading that recipe soon :)
New subscriber 😩😍♥️I’m obsessed already 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Jennifer Pena thank you!!! Your so sweet ❤️❤️

Goya discos aren’t vegan. They have whey in them sadly😭

i love this series ... soooo goood!
thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoy it!
Hey girl love the vid. Question, do you know if these can be baked?
Pamela Medina hey! Thank you so much! I’ve actually never tried it, but I don’t see why not. Maybe try a few and see how it goes. Let me know if it’s a success! 👍🏽
Yes they can be baked.
they can be baked. i prefer them fried tho Lol
I thought the goya disc were vegan but when I googled them I found that they contain milk.
But these Goya discs have milk so this isn’t vegan. I double checked btw
Yummy!
Totally making the pizza 1s 🍕
Thank you! My girlfriend is vegetarian and I’m Puerto Rican. I have been trying to show her my culture through food and it’s been so hard. So glad I found you
Also check out coqui vegan
I let my dough thaw overnight in the fridge
I just buy the vegan beef at the supermarket. I'm just too lazy. I like to add cilantro to it. I eat it with a little bit of ketchup. Yummy.👍
So beautiful
wait?? are goya wrappers vegan??? shut the front door!!
This is NOT Vegan. Delicious, but no vegan. Mozzarella cheese is dairy n the empanadas are filled with whey which is dairy by product. You can research n make ur own dough n use different cheese n make a true vegan meal ❤️
My channel is VEGAN/PLANT-BASED. If you listen correctly, I say VEGAN mozzarella. So yes these are vegan.
You’re very beautiful!
You are beautiful!
Shannon Mae Swartz thank you!! ❤😊
