In the never-ending quest for "plant-based" meat substitutes, once you stumble upon Lion's Mane mushrooms and work with it a bit, it's easy to see how it picks apart and texturally resembles crab. Home cooks use hearts of palm too, but it always ends up a little watery, in my opinion. Pound for pound using Lion's Mane is no cheaper than buying real lump crab meat, but if you want to sink your teeth into something a bit meatier while staying plant-focused, Lion's Mane is worth a try. To make the recipe vegan, simply swap out with an egg substitute.
