I live with a veggie and I cook with tofu a lot. The current house favourite is my tofu stack burger. I cut a block of tofu into 3 thick slices lengthways, then sandwich a paste made of garlic, chilli, coriander, ginger, salt and pepper (I've also tried red pesto but the tofu became quite slimy because of the oil I think) between the layers before squashing the block so you get a nice bite from the final product. Then I cut the reformed block into burger sized pieces and griddle (also works really well on the BBQ. If you want to be quite flash you can make a glaze out of soya sauce or shop bought sweet chilli sauce to paint over the burger while it cooks. Really nice!

It's nice to marinate it in some soy sauce and sesame oil with some spices like thyme and oregano or any spices you prefer and then just bake it in a frying pan with sunflower oil or olive oil. I use rectangular slices of about 1 cm thick, but you can adjust it to however you like it. I wouldn't recommend silky tofu for this since it is quite fragile and would probably just tear apart. The same can be done with Tempe, also very healthy and very good, especially for vegetarians! Curry cubes are nice too! Bake them in a pan with oil (olive/sunflower/coconut) and when they're about ready add in the curry powder!

too much tofu will cause men to develop breasts, and women to have too much estrogen in their system. Nitrogen is a hormone that doesn't regulates when more estrogen from outside sources, is introduced. My uncle had a normal diet, but his primary source of protein was tofu, and developed breast cancer. This was in korea Not saying that people shouldn't eat it, but like in all things, in moderation.

When we have a few people over for drinking and barbecuing my mom cuts it into squares and then she adds green onions, a hot sauce (probably sriracha, minced garlic, and I think soy sauce and ginger but I'm not sure about those. Served cold on a small plate. I think I got the toppings right. I've never actually watched her make it because I'm usually already busy drinking by then lol.

Hi Jamie, I wanted to know if you could give me any info on Tofu (and all processed soy products) in regards to the processing the soy bean and how it then becomes bad for the body to absorb it? Or it doesn't assimilate it correctly/healthily? I am not trying to be a debby-downer, just would like to know all the facts and I trust your judgement. Cheers!

This was great! As Jamie explained, tofu is an extremely important food ingredient in Eastern Asia. It was never meant to be a meat replacement and is eaten and enjoyed by meat-lovers and vegetarians alike. We love it for its texture and there are tons of traditional dishes in China, Korea, and Japan that feature tofu as the main ingredient.

Tofu is an too often over-looked ingredient, as a chef I think its a dream ingredient as it soaks up any flavour you give it while having virtually none on its own, and given the different densities of tofu there are 100s of dishes it can work in, and it also allows you provide protein to vegans and vegetarians in a form other than lentils.

I followed an exclusively plant based diet for the best part of a year and just couldn't get on with tofu. It was bland, sludgy and crappy. So thank you for giving me cause to take another look! I really like your continued effort to influence people to make positive changes in their diet. Good for you.
