tofu sandwich spread
well, I finally did it. I made my tofu sandwich spread taking suggestions. I received here from everyone. Thank you!
I took a three-quarter pound block of tofu out of the refrigerator and pressed it for 15 minutes. Then I crumbled it into a bowl and added 3 tablespoons ofmayonnaise, which I added, seven minced garlic cloves that I roasted the previous day, 3 tablespoons of nutritional yeast flakes, a tablespoon of lemon juice and a healthy pinch of cumin. Mixed it all together I think it taste great.
The next one I make, I'm gonna add two pieces of celery, chopped up, one sweet onion, sautéed, and of course, the garlic I will have previously roasted.
If you are vegetarian, are you a vegetarian because of your religion?
Meat eating was a sin in the past and many cultures today are primarily vegetarian. If you are vegetarian is it strictly due to your religion?
Tikka masala inspired chickpeas (not authentic, but good for when you want a similar flavor in 20 minutes)
This recipe is called Egg Roll in a bowl. I learned this one yesterday and I wanted to share it.
Egg Roll in a Bowl (Vegetarian)
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
Main Base
2 Tablespoons sesame or avocado oil, divided
14–16 oz extra firm tofu, pressed and drained
¾ of a 14–16 oz bag of coleslaw mix
8 oz sliced white mushrooms
4 green onions, sliced (whites and greens separated)
Sauce
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
2 Tablespoons white or rice vinegar
2 Tablespoons coconut aminos
1 Tablespoon fresh grated ginger
¼ teaspoon dried ground ginger
1 Tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon Sriracha (optional)
2 teaspoons cornstarch
To Serve
2 cups cooked brown rice or cauliflower rice
Lime wedges for garnish
Instructions
To Press Tofu:
Wrap the tofu block in a couple of paper towels, set it on a plate, and place a heavy object (like a cast-iron skillet or a stack of books) on top. Let the tofu sit for about 30 minutes until the paper towels have absorbed the excess moisture.
Brown the Tofu: In a large skillet, heat 1 Tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Crumble the pressed tofu into the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is golden brown and slightly crispy.
Sauté Vegetables: Add the coleslaw mix, mushrooms, garlic, and the white parts of the green onions to the pan. Cook until the cabbage is tender and the mushrooms have softened (about 10 minutes).
Whisk the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, coconut aminos, juice from ½ a lime, brown sugar, the remaining 1 Tablespoon of oil, and the cornstarch.
Combine: Pour the sauce over the tofu and vegetable mixture. Cook for 1–2 minutes, tossing frequently, until the sauce thickens and everything is well coated.
Serve: Scoop the mixture over a base of brown rice or cauliflower rice. Garnish with the green onion tops and extra lime wedges.
Southern-fried Soy Curls
I was craving KFC… so came up with something similar. Here’s how I did it:
Southern-fried Soy Curls
Ingredients:
For rehydrating:
∙ 1 bag soy curls (about 8 oz dry)
∙ 4 cups hot “chicken” broth (I use Frontier’s stock powders)
For marinade:
∙ ½ cup buttermilk (I used cashew milk and buttermilk powder because that’s what I had in stock)
∙ ½ cup pickle juice
∙ 3 eggs
∙ Blend until smooth
For seasoned flour dredge:
∙ 2 cups all-purpose flour
∙ 2 teaspoons salt
∙ 1 tablespoon black pepper (coarse ground)
∙ 2 teaspoons paprika
∙ 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
∙ 1½ teaspoons onion powder
∙ 1 teaspoon MSG
∙ 1 teaspoon dried thyme
∙ ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
∙ ½ teaspoon dried oregano
∙ ½ teaspoon dried basil
For frying:
∙ Neutral oil (I use canola)
Instructions:
1. Rehydrate soy curls in hot broth for 10-15 minutes until soft. Drain and pat dry on a towel. Use the leftover broth for mashed potatoes and/or gravy
2. Blend cashew milk, pickle juice, and eggs until smooth. Pour over squeezed soy curls and marinate 15-30 minutes.
3. Mix all flour dredge ingredients thoroughly in a shallow bowl.
4. Remove soy curls from marinade, letting excess drip off. Dredge in seasoned flour, coating completely. Leave in there, tossing occasionally.
5. Heat 2-3 inches of oil in a heavy pot or deep skillet to 350-375°F.
6. Fry in batches without crowding, 3-4 minutes per batch until golden brown and crispy.
7. Drain on a wire rack (not paper towels) to keep coating crispy.
Notes:
∙ Wire rack drainage prevents soggy coating
∙ Adjust cayenne to taste for heat level
∙ Best served immediately while hot and crispy
∙ Air-fry or bake after refrigeration or freezing to crisp them up again
