Title: Tasty Tofu
Post by: Mok on May 19, 2007, 12:02:10 AM
Rushed for dinner, I prepared the most tasty tofu I have ever eaten:

1 package firm tofu
8oz water + 2tsp vegetable "Better Than Boullion"
Pinch of fresh:
 Basil
 Summer Savory
 Rosemary
 Thyme
 Sage
 Oregano

Sliced the tofu up into 1/2" (1.25cm) slices and simmered in the broth/herb mix for a while.  Actually I kinda let it go too long and the pan went a little dry, so I added a splash or two more water to get it all liquidy again.  I turned the tofu a few times as well.  It cooked maybe 20 minutes before I threw a slab onto a bed of couscous and ate it.  BabyMok loved it!

I think though that next time I'll bread the tofu with something crunchy and fry it a bit.  Maybe corn flake crumbs...

A tasty and easy tofu: fry it with curry powder, serve with rice. Yummy, but frying it makes a damn mess in the pan.

Ive found that freezing it beforehand makes it much more likely to stick together.  We made some "Tasty Tofu Bits" last night, pretty much frozen extra firm cubed and marinated in a mixture of soy sauce (braggs), balsamic vinegar, and hot sauce, fried in olive oil.  They went great in spaghetti.
