mrsantiago asked: I like tofu in restaurants but have never cooked with it. I like spicy food with lots of veggies. I want something simple – less than an hour in cooking time. I am allergic to peanuts and sesame seeds, and their oils, but I can cook with anything else.

bariswheel asked: I had some real good tasting tofu the other day, made me guess twice as to whether it was chicken I was eating, as the texture was so similar. I’d like to cook tofu such that the texture feels as like ‘chicken skin’ on the outside and relatively soft on the inside, similar to how chicken is cooked. I’m new to this so how does one go about doing this? Thanks. What are some other yummie ways to cook tofu. Good spices with minimized sodium?
Thanks.

CC asked: I bought firm tofu. I dipped it in milk coated with bread crumbs and baked at 350 for 10mnts. It still felt soft in center is that normal?

ecstaticdevine asked: I am addicted to spicy thai chili tuna…but unfortunately am having to cut back on it since I am TTC due to the mercury content.
I bought some tofu and I am wondering what can I do with it to let it replace my tuna?
I really want to spice it up and have it in the fridge for anytime I need a spicy fix.
Thanks for your help!
Any ideas are welcome.
p.s. It’s extra firm tofu.

myname asked: I have tried tofu once before (years ago), the tofu stir-fry was absolutely horrible, no flavor and weird texture. It was like eating rubber. But I decided to give it another go. a lot of recipes call for frying it, but I got tofu for the purpose of eating healthy. Anyone know a flavorful, low fat recipe for tofu?
I should that I have firm tofu.

KMS asked: I love going to Vietnamese restaurants and getting vermicelli dishes with the fresh veggies and tofu. The tofu doesn’t seem like it’s fried (I hope it’s not!), but it has a really great texture and it’s not oily at all. It’s just slightly chewy. It’s also like this in the tofu spring rolls w/ peanut sauce that I enjoy. I can’t seem to replicate this at home. Does anybody know the method that might be used to make the tofu like this?
Thanks for any tips!

Rob asked: I’m curious to try making some tofu dinner dishes, but I’d like this to go over well with the kids. Any suggestions or ideas of tofu dishes that the kids won’t shun? (or is this an impossible task?)
Thanks.
