TOFU
.
Tofu is a complete vegetarian/vegan protein. It doesn’t have much flavour on it’s own and it takes on the flavour of the ingredients you are cooking with it. Tofu is very versatile and can be used in savory and sweet dishes.
When trying tofu for the first time, have an open mind it doesn’t taste like anything specific. If you think it will taste like a juicy medium rare t-bone steak, you will be disappointed.
