Tofu.
00:00:01.625 --> 00:00:07.102
It can seem so foreign when you're not familiar with it and you don't know how to prepare it.
00:00:07.102 --> 00:00:15.747
I remember when Jared and I first decided to try tofu, I didn't know where to find it, what kind to buy or how to make it.
00:00:15.747 --> 00:00:22.356
Perhaps you've already decided that tofu tastes nasty because you've had a bad run in with it.
00:00:22.356 --> 00:00:30.849
Or maybe you bought some tofu with good intentions but you just never got around to using it because you found it kind of intimidating and foreign.
00:00:30.849 --> 00:00:45.180
But that's not going to be your story anymore, because we've learned how to get this healthy source of soybeans into our life in the way that's simple and enjoyable too, and in this episode we're sharing the six big dos and don'ts we've discovered.
00:00:45.180 --> 00:00:46.865
That will help you love it too.
00:00:46.865 --> 00:00:48.149
Let's do this.
00:00:48.149 --> 00:00:52.887
Hey there, sunshine, welcome to the Power On Plants podcast.
00:00:52.887 --> 00:01:02.569
We're your host, jared and Anita Roussell, and we're absolutely head over heels for whole plant foods and helping you navigate this incredible plant based journey.
00:01:02.569 --> 00:01:07.444
That's because our lives have been completely changed by plant based goodness.
00:01:07.444 --> 00:01:20.120
We used to struggle every day with excess pounds and low energy, vascular disease, joint pain and lack of sleep, just to name a few, and even though we're medical professionals, we still weren't getting practical answers that actually worked.
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:28.570
So we dug into the research, we started living what we learned, and now we both have our lives back, and that's what we want for you to.
00:01:28.570 --> 00:01:32.102
The truth is, you can do this and it's not hard.
00:01:32.102 --> 00:01:35.430
You just need a way that will bring real and lasting change.
00:01:35.430 --> 00:01:36.531
And that path.
00:01:36.531 --> 00:01:40.528
It has to be simple and enjoyable, and it's got to be delicious too.
00:01:40.528 --> 00:01:43.302
So are you ready to live your life to the fullest?
00:01:43.302 --> 00:01:48.864
Then you're in the right place, because living without limits what power on plants is all about.
00:01:48.864 --> 00:01:53.861
So pull up your chair, grab a matcha latte and let's get started.
00:01:53.861 --> 00:02:02.875
Hey friend, welcome to this episode all about tofu, the six big dos and don'ts.
00:02:02.875 --> 00:02:22.014
Now, this is really important for a lot of reasons that we're going to be talking about as we go, but one of the big things is I don't want you to have tried tofu and miss out on it in the future because you had a bad run in with it at one point, or it just feels so intimidating that you're just scared to try it.
00:02:22.014 --> 00:02:34.947
You know, I seriously have friends who've bought it, had it sit in the refrigerator for a long amount of time, so long that it actually went bad and I believe that this happened to us when we first bought it, I think the first time we bought it.
00:02:34.947 --> 00:02:38.389
It just sat there for a long time and you held it up and said are you going to cook this?
00:02:38.389 --> 00:02:41.745
And I think it was already out of date because I just didn't know what to do with it.
00:02:41.944 --> 00:02:43.509
Package might have even gotten a little puffy.
00:02:43.979 --> 00:02:48.421
It may have gotten a little puffy, I'm pretty sure we didn't open it, we just tossed it at that point.
00:02:48.682 --> 00:02:52.335
I would like to ask if you've ever had a bad haircut.
00:02:52.335 --> 00:02:54.662
Did you give up on haircuts?
00:02:54.662 --> 00:02:56.525
No, that's a good point.
00:02:56.525 --> 00:02:59.592
You just found a different stylist to do it.
00:02:59.852 --> 00:03:04.870
Well, yeah, you don't want to give up on the haircuts or the tofu.
00:03:04.870 --> 00:03:06.152
That would be just really bad.
00:03:06.152 --> 00:03:07.824
Yeah, we moved about a year ago.
00:03:07.824 --> 00:03:12.098
I totally miss my incredible hairstylist so much.
00:03:12.098 --> 00:03:15.887
I've seriously been to five or six hairstylists here.
00:03:15.887 --> 00:03:23.456
Still have not found one I love and I am really thinking about driving five hours back to my old hairstylist.
00:03:23.456 --> 00:03:26.207
Girl, if you have ever moved, you know what I'm talking about.
00:03:26.207 --> 00:03:27.614
It's a real thing.
00:03:27.614 --> 00:03:28.658
But we don't give up.
00:03:28.658 --> 00:03:34.616
We press on, we persevere and that's what you want to do with tofu.
00:03:34.616 --> 00:03:46.310
So we are going to get into these six do's and don'ts with practical tactical tips for you so that you can make plant-based simple, enjoyable and delicious for yourself and your family.
00:03:46.310 --> 00:03:53.070
Step number one do eat organic tofu for your health.
00:03:53.070 --> 00:03:57.545
If you have not heard it yet, I want you to go back to episode number 206.
00:03:57.545 --> 00:04:00.110
Is soy healthy or should you avoid it?
00:04:00.110 --> 00:04:13.781
The research is in for all the deeds, because when some of the top breast cancer specialists say over and over again that tofu is one of the main ingredients that's always in their fridge, there's a reason for that.
00:04:14.162 --> 00:04:14.763
You listen?
00:04:15.123 --> 00:04:20.262
Oh yeah, you totally listen because they're saying it over and over again.
00:04:20.262 --> 00:04:27.333
So why do I hear the specialist saying that she keeps it in her fridge at all times, one of the top cancer fighting foods?
00:04:27.333 --> 00:04:33.951
She keeps in her fridge because the research is in, like we said in episode 206, and you can hear all about that.
00:04:33.951 --> 00:04:36.545
Go back and listen to that episode when this one's over.
00:04:36.545 --> 00:04:37.910
But eat it.
00:04:37.910 --> 00:04:50.391
Step number one is do eat it and do buy organic, because soy is known to be highly treated with pesticides and GMO as well, so you do want to buy organic when you get it.
00:04:50.391 --> 00:04:56.812
So the point being for step number one is it's time to learn how to love it.
00:04:56.812 --> 00:04:59.682
Now maybe you're thinking you've completely lost your marbles.
00:04:59.682 --> 00:05:00.524
I've tasted it.
00:05:00.524 --> 00:05:01.947
I've tried it, anita.
00:05:01.947 --> 00:05:04.291
It tastes so bland, it is nasty.
00:05:04.291 --> 00:05:11.124
So did that chicken or that other type of meat that you used to love that graced your plate on a regular basis?
00:05:11.124 --> 00:05:13.692
Did it taste great without sauce on it?
00:05:13.692 --> 00:05:16.723
I want you to think about this, sister, you know I'm right.
00:05:16.723 --> 00:05:18.161
You know what I'm talking about.
00:05:18.161 --> 00:05:25.480
What you really like most about meat is the flavor that the sauce gives it.
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:36.202
You're not gonna eat a plain piece of meat and find it tasting delicious and calling up your best friend telling them about this great recipe for a plain chicken breast that you found.
00:05:36.202 --> 00:05:40.704
You're just not gonna do it because it doesn't taste good alone.
00:05:40.704 --> 00:05:42.480
You need that sauce.
00:05:43.235 --> 00:05:45.021
So I'm just thinking of two recipes here.
00:05:45.021 --> 00:05:51.098
So let's say you have chicken marsala and then lemon pepper chicken, Chicken's chicken.
00:05:51.098 --> 00:05:56.283
But you would probably consider those two separate dishes because they taste very, very different.
00:05:56.283 --> 00:05:58.182
The marsala's that got that wine flavor.
00:05:58.182 --> 00:05:59.139
It's a sweet flavor.
00:05:59.139 --> 00:06:02.024
But that lemon pepper very different.
00:06:02.024 --> 00:06:03.439
What makes it different?
00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:09.420
It's the same base, it's the same chicken, it's the seasoning, it's the spices, it's the sauces on it.
00:06:09.420 --> 00:06:10.738
Tofu's, no different.
00:06:11.098 --> 00:06:11.649
It's the flavor.
00:06:11.649 --> 00:06:14.783
You've got to get the flavor in there.
00:06:14.783 --> 00:06:15.555
Okay.
00:06:15.555 --> 00:06:19.625
So step number one is do eat organic tofu.
00:06:19.625 --> 00:06:20.759
And how do you do that?
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:22.199
That's point number two.
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:32.463
You get that block of firm or extra firm tofu into some mouth watering sauce and we're gonna be talking with you more about the importance of sauces as we go.
00:06:32.463 --> 00:06:37.444
But, friend, you've gotta become a sauce boss if you want to love your plant-based meals.
00:06:37.444 --> 00:06:42.339
This isn't any different from other types of food in this regard.
00:06:42.339 --> 00:06:46.579
You know, you think plant-based is so foreign and I don't know what to do with plants and I don't know how to eat plants.
00:06:46.579 --> 00:06:47.778
What would you do with meat?
00:06:47.778 --> 00:06:48.798
How'd you eat meat?
00:06:48.798 --> 00:06:55.461
I mean, you learn to dress it up with a sauce where you're gonna do the same thing with plant-based dishes.
00:06:55.461 --> 00:06:59.360
If you want it to taste good, you've gotta have flavor there, right?
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:06.221
So please hear me, I am not talking about spending all day in the kitchen prepping it kind of sauces.
00:07:06.221 --> 00:07:07.579
We don't have time for that.
00:07:07.579 --> 00:07:14.023
I'm talking realistic, busy mama Sister's got a lot on her busy plate sauces.
00:07:14.023 --> 00:07:16.459
Okay, does that make sense to you?
00:07:16.459 --> 00:07:18.221
Because that's my world.
00:07:18.221 --> 00:07:27.961
We are too busy for hour-long sauces that got a simmer and stew on the stove or that have a hundred million ingredients that we don't have in our pantry.
00:07:27.961 --> 00:07:32.480
We need those staple ingredients in these simple sauces, five minutes max.
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:36.223
I'm talking a whisk, a bowl or a Nutribullet.
00:07:36.223 --> 00:07:45.966
Okay, bzzz, done, all right, you can make glazes like barbecue sauce, asian nut butter sauce and Hollandaise sauce.
00:07:45.966 --> 00:07:48.322
Tell me about some Hollandaise sauce, jared.
00:07:48.875 --> 00:07:52.259
Oh yeah, that has transformed some dishes for us at Race House.
00:07:53.137 --> 00:07:56.663
Transformed dishes Specifically, can you think of one that has transformed for you?
00:07:57.355 --> 00:07:59.862
I would say the tofu scramble, tofu scramble.
00:07:59.862 --> 00:08:03.279
It has actually made, not just transformed it, it made it possible.
00:08:03.574 --> 00:08:06.324
Okay, we're gonna talk about that in just a second.
00:08:06.324 --> 00:08:07.480
We're gonna talk about that.
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:08.961
You know exactly where I'm going.
00:08:08.961 --> 00:08:14.218
These sauces are the keys to taking tofu from bland, and I don't like it.
00:08:14.218 --> 00:08:17.663
De-hey, this really tastes good.
00:08:17.663 --> 00:08:21.725
Okay, I have to tell you the story about Jared's sister Lainey.
00:08:21.725 --> 00:08:28.269
When she first met tofu scramble, she did not like it.
00:08:28.269 --> 00:08:39.903
Now it was a typical recipe that's floating around out there that uses crumbled tofu and some shaken on spices like turmeric to make it yellowish like an egg.
00:08:40.164 --> 00:08:43.668
Now would you Because yellow has a flavor Right, right.
00:08:45.961 --> 00:08:49.520
Oh my goodness, hashtag, because yellow has a flavor.
00:08:49.520 --> 00:08:51.145
Oh my goodness.
00:08:51.145 --> 00:09:02.320
All right, would you please, please, tell me for the love how that is ever gonna taste similar to the scrambled eggs you used to love?
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.895
Please, no, sister, I just can't even Okay.
00:09:05.895 --> 00:09:14.744
So once I told her to trash that recipe and just try crumbling up her pressed tofu and then adding it to a skillet with her favorite veggies.
00:09:14.744 --> 00:09:21.479
She's already sauteed, because we loved loaded scrambled eggs, and if you didn't, you can leave them plain and just put the sauce.
00:09:21.479 --> 00:09:26.682
But we love to get the extra veggies in when we can, and it gives so much flavor to this dish.
00:09:26.682 --> 00:09:30.325
So you've sauteed your veggies without oil.
00:09:30.325 --> 00:09:36.259
Now you're going to crumble up your pressed tofu into that same skillet, and then what are you gonna do?
00:09:36.259 --> 00:09:44.821
You're gonna drizzle on the Power and Plants Hollandaise sauce with a pinch of black salt colonomic, and she was a happy camper.
00:09:44.821 --> 00:09:53.061
Now, please do not worry, I'm gonna post for you the link in the show notes to the black salt if you've never heard of it, so you can get it straight to your door.
00:09:53.061 --> 00:10:00.842
Just only use the pinch, though, because we want to minimize the use of salt, and it only takes a pinch of it for the egg flavor.
00:10:00.842 --> 00:10:07.544
But after Lainey had had Tofu scramble this way, she was so happy cause she actually liked them.
00:10:07.544 --> 00:10:14.399
She texted me and said sister, this is amazing, I actually liked Tofu scramble, I just thought I didn't like it.
00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:18.583
But what had really happened is she had had to run in with a bad recipe.
00:10:18.583 --> 00:10:26.504
Look, you cannot sprinkle some yellow, as Jared says, onto your dish and end up with eggs, an egg flavor.
00:10:26.504 --> 00:10:27.386
It's just not gonna happen.
00:10:27.386 --> 00:10:29.763
Now, these are not identical to eggs.
00:10:29.763 --> 00:10:34.288
They're not gonna be exactly like eggs, but they're so close to me, they're pretty darn close.
00:10:34.288 --> 00:10:35.902
Yeah, I mean they're so close to me.
00:10:35.902 --> 00:10:37.922
I honestly I like them better.
00:10:37.922 --> 00:10:40.263
And they don't leave you feeling bad afterwards.
00:10:40.263 --> 00:10:41.721
And that's the big thing here.
00:10:41.721 --> 00:10:43.542
You eat it, it tastes just as good.
00:10:43.542 --> 00:10:45.722
You never feel deprived, right?
00:10:45.722 --> 00:10:48.423
We don't wanna set ourselves up to feel deprived.
00:10:48.423 --> 00:10:53.581
If you're eating healthy in a way that makes you feel deprived, how long are you gonna continue that?
00:10:53.581 --> 00:10:58.519
Please ask yourself that how long am I gonna continue this Until I get the results I want?
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:00.926
If I power through, if I power through.
00:11:00.955 --> 00:11:02.260
There's gonna be some powering through there.
00:11:02.514 --> 00:11:04.302
Yeah, and then I get the results I want.
00:11:04.302 --> 00:11:08.546
And then what am I going to do if it's not enjoyable?
00:11:09.878 --> 00:11:12.139
If I felt deprived, it'll start with the cheat day.
00:11:12.139 --> 00:11:13.519
I'll just do it this once.
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:13.919
Yeah.
00:11:14.674 --> 00:11:16.221
And then you don't see the immediate effect.
00:11:16.221 --> 00:11:27.679
Well, I didn't gain that 100 pounds back and I don't feel quite as bad as I used to, and you might be good for a little bit, and you're gonna cheat again, and cheat again, and cheat again, and then you're gonna be right back where you were.
00:11:27.955 --> 00:11:29.522
Yeah, you're not gonna be plant-based anymore.
00:11:29.522 --> 00:11:36.323
You're not gonna be vegan anymore because you never learned how to enjoy it and that goes for any way that you're living.
00:11:36.323 --> 00:11:38.142
You've got to learn how to enjoy it.
00:11:38.142 --> 00:11:43.839
But with plant-based you're actually gonna be getting healthy on the inside at the same time and getting those results.
00:11:43.839 --> 00:11:50.000
Like all of Jared's patients calling him up and going, hey, my blood pressure's gone down, I mean, how'd it happen again?
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:51.360
It's just over and over.
00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:52.820
Again, my blood pressure's gone down.
00:11:52.820 --> 00:11:57.302
I'm coming off my medications for my blood pressure with his help, right Under doctor supervision.
00:11:57.302 --> 00:12:05.482
You always wanna do that Under doctor supervision so that your blood pressure doesn't go too low or too high, but it can get better with plant-based.
00:12:05.482 --> 00:12:06.779
So can your cholesterol.
00:12:06.779 --> 00:12:13.181
This happens, this is what is normal, when you're eating the foods that naturally heal your body.
00:12:13.181 --> 00:12:15.321
So what is step three?
00:12:15.321 --> 00:12:17.201
Do press your tofu out.
00:12:17.201 --> 00:12:23.666
Listen, you can skip this step if you'd like, but I'm all about saving you time and increasing flavor.
00:12:23.666 --> 00:12:38.539
Yes, you'll need to wait a couple of minutes for the liquid to get pressed out of that tofu block, but in the long run it's gonna save you precious minutes that add up to hours of your life, and I know you value those moments, because I value mine too.
00:12:38.539 --> 00:12:55.903
You see, when you take a few minutes to press that tofu out, not only does it more easily soak up the flavors of the sauce you add to it, but it cooks faster because there's less liquid in there that has to cook out, and around here we're all about that.
00:12:55.903 --> 00:12:57.701
Healthy meals done fast.
00:12:57.701 --> 00:12:59.700
So press the tofu out.
00:13:00.075 --> 00:13:01.099
What I also think about.
00:13:01.099 --> 00:13:06.341
Then the liquid that's coming out of the tofu is gonna water down the sauce and it may not stick to the outside.
00:13:06.341 --> 00:13:10.841
It's gonna run into the bottom of the pan, and so you're just not gonna get a great result.
00:13:10.841 --> 00:13:13.221
With that I mean saving time.
00:13:13.221 --> 00:13:14.298
Yeah, huge bonus.
00:13:14.298 --> 00:13:20.938
But I think you're gonna be disappointed with the results for a lot of those recipes that we do, Because it'll water down the sauce and water down the flavor.
00:13:20.938 --> 00:13:31.138
And we really sometimes we'll let the tofu press for longer if we have the time, but really just a few minutes is all that's really necessary to get the bulk of that liquid out.
00:13:31.715 --> 00:13:32.238
Absolutely.
00:13:32.238 --> 00:13:34.159
Step number four is a do not.
00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:36.181
Do not give up.
00:13:36.181 --> 00:13:40.024
If you try one sauce and you don't like it on your tofu, try another one.
00:13:40.024 --> 00:13:42.663
Maybe it was a bad sauce recipe.
00:13:42.663 --> 00:13:45.143
I've experienced plenty of bad recipes online.
00:13:45.143 --> 00:13:46.620
So is my sister-in-law right.
00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:54.062
So have many of our members and they come to the membership and they start cooking the recipes and they say, anita, this is changing my life.
00:13:54.062 --> 00:13:59.381
I mean, just yesterday, one of our members posted about how she tried the chili recipe.
00:13:59.381 --> 00:14:03.929
She made it and she said this is the best chili we've ever had.
00:14:03.929 --> 00:14:08.602
No, of all time she was saying this is the best one we've ever had.
00:14:08.602 --> 00:14:22.142
And it just makes us smile to get those notes like that and just know that this is a game changer, because when you replace those favorite things and we always say that, find your new favorites, find your new favorites.
00:14:22.142 --> 00:14:24.542
How many times did I say that all the time?
00:14:24.542 --> 00:14:24.722
Why?
00:14:24.722 --> 00:14:27.061
Because it is key to your success.
00:14:27.061 --> 00:14:29.662
You've got to find your new favorites.
00:14:29.721 --> 00:14:33.813
I'm sorry, as you're saying that, no, as you're saying that I'm envisioning.
00:14:33.813 --> 00:14:48.984
A big, giant quart size I'm sorry, big giant gallon size jar where they maybe put a thousand or 2,000 marbles in it and you have to guess the number of marbles in it and if whoever's closest wins the prize or whatever, it is Right.
00:14:51.134 --> 00:14:53.724
I totally do not see how that relates at all.
00:14:53.895 --> 00:14:56.778
I'm completely lost Because you said how many times I was losing my marbles.
00:14:56.778 --> 00:14:58.138
No, no, no.
00:14:58.138 --> 00:15:02.822
You were saying how many times do we say that I'm thinking oh, easily a couple thousand.
00:15:03.054 --> 00:15:05.042
Oh yeah, I tried to guess.
00:15:05.042 --> 00:15:10.061
Oh my God, I can't even right now.
00:15:10.121 --> 00:15:13.743
Y'all, I cannot even he has messed me up.
00:15:16.674 --> 00:15:19.403
If I have to stop the episode of Resumment Later.
00:15:19.403 --> 00:15:21.181
This is so funny.
00:15:21.181 --> 00:15:22.841
He constantly has me in stitches.
00:15:22.841 --> 00:15:23.739
Does he make all that?
00:15:23.739 --> 00:15:31.703
I totally didn't get where I was going with that, because I think I said something earlier about losing my marbles, or maybe I was just thinking about losing my marbles.
00:15:31.703 --> 00:15:37.349
Well, you know, they might say guess the number of Skittles or guess the number of whatever that's in it, how many times?
00:15:38.698 --> 00:15:42.453
I thought marbles might be a little bit healthier than Skittles.
00:15:43.674 --> 00:15:45.302
That is hilarious.
00:15:45.302 --> 00:15:47.241
We could pick cookie chunks in there.
00:15:47.355 --> 00:15:53.447
What we could do is have AI go through and listen to all of our episodes and calculate 2,354.
00:15:53.447 --> 00:15:58.979
How many times I actually say Whoever guesses it gets a free copy of the cookbook.
00:16:02.866 --> 00:16:03.509
I love it.
00:16:03.509 --> 00:16:07.025
Do y'all know we just passed 100,000 downloads for the podcast.
00:16:07.025 --> 00:16:11.961
We haven't mentioned that yet and we're going to be talking about that, but that just made me think of you know.
00:16:11.961 --> 00:16:14.139
Hey, that's coming up, we can celebrate.
00:16:14.139 --> 00:16:19.264
But oh, my goodness, listen, he always keeps me on my toes.
00:16:19.264 --> 00:16:20.360
It is so hilarious.
00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:21.559
I've laughed so hard.
00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:24.022
Right now I don't even know if I can finish this episode.
00:16:24.022 --> 00:16:28.785
Ok, step number four is do not give up.
00:16:28.785 --> 00:16:45.583
You're going to find and have some run-ins with some bad sauces you probably already have, and I'm sorry that you've gone through that too, but I promise you that there are some very quick and easy sauces that actually do taste good, are healthy and don't include any junk ingredients.
00:16:45.583 --> 00:16:48.503
If you don't know where to see smiling again, I'm scared.
00:16:48.875 --> 00:16:50.581
Are you just thinking about what we're talking about?
00:16:50.581 --> 00:16:52.482
No, that's just still leftover from before.
00:16:52.482 --> 00:16:57.586
I think my face is frozen.
00:16:57.586 --> 00:17:01.182
I just thought it was a smile and not cross-eyed.
00:17:04.895 --> 00:17:07.662
Me too dear Me too, all right.
00:17:07.662 --> 00:17:23.722
So if you need those tried-and-tru recipes that take five minutes or less and you just don't know where to start, the sauces I mentioned earlier the barbecue sauce, the Asian nut butter sauce and the hollandaise are all in the Cookbook bundle which you can find at power-on-plantscom forward slash cookbook.
00:17:23.722 --> 00:17:35.401
Now for step number five Do cook your sauce-covered tofu on a parchment lined or silicone mat lined baking sheet just until the sauce is mostly dried and browned a bit.
00:17:35.401 --> 00:17:46.741
If you do not cook it this long until it starts drying out and it looks brownish, you'll most likely find the tofu wet, a bit mushy and not pleasant to eat at all.
00:17:46.741 --> 00:17:47.545
You want it to be.
00:17:47.545 --> 00:17:50.163
If you picked it up with your fingers, it would be dry.
00:17:50.163 --> 00:17:53.280
If you're not sticky on your fingers, it's going to make a coating.
00:17:53.280 --> 00:17:55.501
Think of something like a batter.
00:17:55.501 --> 00:17:58.804
You know, when you cook a batter on chicken, it dries out.
00:17:58.804 --> 00:18:00.820
You want this to dry out the same way.
00:18:00.820 --> 00:18:07.040
And step six Do refrigerate it after you've cooked it this way and try it the next day.
00:18:07.040 --> 00:18:17.619
Now something glorious happens to the texture of tofu when it's cooked, after it cools, and it's even more glorious after it hits the fridge.
00:18:17.619 --> 00:18:29.778
If you're looking for chicken breast texture, something to replace your chicken, those old chicken nuggets, that just that texture that you know and love in your all favorite dishes.
00:18:29.778 --> 00:18:33.079
This is where you're going to find it.
