[@yumesuke3]

This is the first time I've made tofu and enjoyed every bite. Thank you. ☺️ I'll definitely be making this again. I accidentally bought sesame sauce instead of dressing, but it was still really tasty on the kale. 😆

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

I’m so glad you like it : ) and I’m now curious about sesame sauce… thank you !

[@Gunjan_classical]

So sorry but the background music is irritating

[@Aishanyanegi]

In India we make rice in only just 10 minutes

[@annemiura7767]

Different rice😊

[@SqweakySqwizard]

This recipe is delicious! I just made it and I'm so glad I found a way to make my tofu crispy

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

Oh I’m so glad you liked it. Thank you!

How do you NOT have more subscribers!?

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

haha thanks ! I hope I have more and more soon!

Yep, made this for dinner today and it’s very tasty! I’m pretty sure your channel will reach 100,000 subscribers very quickly!

Thank you Mitch, that’s so encouraging! Feels like it’s still far ahead but I hope that’ll happen : )

@@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579 Do you have any more vegetarian dishes?

[@Parshwa_Nathwani]

Can i use vinegar instead of sake? This looks very delicious!!

[@Kyrgyz18]

An interesting recipe but the music in the background is quite annoying 🙉

[@roanwolf6389]

I'm not sure about the greens. I never eat kale almost-raw like that, it would be bitter and kinda tough texture.

[@ls-wv8dy]

Looks delicious and love theusic as well!!🤗

[@TheSadBunny]

Had this for lunch today and really liked it thank you! :)

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

If we don’t put the tofu in the pan ‘carefully’ then will it explode 😳🙄🫣

Thankyou brother love this

What is a good alternative of sake?

[@TheCrunchyCow]

Probably mirin (you can find alcohol free versions if that is your reason for not using sake)

[@x0michellex0]

This looks yummy! I'll have to try it ☺️

[@not-so-frustrated-musician6410]

Can I use Mirin instead of Sake?

I can't wait to make this 😊

I'm wondering how you sharpen your Yoshihiro petty knife. There is some kind of whetstone shown at the beginning of this video... do you have a reference to the product such as an Amazon link? Thanks!

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

It was a gift from a friend so not sure where it’s from, but normal double sided stone with #1000 & #3000, and has been working great. Thank you !!

[@swatikhese9884]

This miso paste is vegetarian? Could you please mention details

[@krysab6125]

Miso paste itself is always vegetarian 🙂 Some 'instant' miso soup packets aren't suitable for vegetarians because they contain bonito flakes (dried fish). If you buy pure miso paste (this looks like white - shiro - miso), you'll be fine! Hope that helps 😊

[@adrianwan4997]

if I didn't add sake would that affect the result as I just made it and it doesn't look the same :( it's like black.

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

Sake doesn’t only add flavor but also dilute the sauce so I would add sand part of water : )

[@howard811114]

Looks soooooo tasty! Definitely gonna make it today!

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

Thank you and enjoy it !

Thank you for asking, it's called "Street-dreams" by Julian Hartwell. I love it too!

Fantastic video. I turned off panic attack creating music, and really enjoyed it. Learned a lot about my favorite foods preparation ❤

The crispy to fluffy is so important. Love this!. Thanks

[@Rashmisillustration]

Love this recipe a lot. it's easy and simple to make. But can we skip soya sauce? or add something else. Thank you so much for sharing😊🙏

[@quinniequinster3180]

this looks amazing. I could only find manji mrin rick (kikkoman brand) can i substitute this for the sake in your recipe?

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

Yes mirin can substitute for sake but mirin has already sugar in it, I would recommend to reduce sugar by 1/2 tbsp in this recipe : ) thank you !

[@christinestotzel2671]

If you don't have Sake for the sauce can you use Mirin?

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

you can, but it make it sweeter, so I would do less sugar to balance : )

[@nervenjere]

I will try that now. great video.

Tofu is paneer in India right?

[@mymidnightjapaneserecipes6579]

I understand paneer is more cheese? Tofu is made from soy beans and water and is not being fermented : )

[@bethlee7260]

Paneer is made from milk/ dairy.

[@rbrown6476]

Oh wow, what gorgeous food, and so simple and healthy. Everything about that meal is something I crave. Thank you. But sadly I can’t subscribe because I have a cognitive disability that means my brain can’t cope with the sound of fast music playing in the background of videos where there’s other sounds. It’s especially bad when music is competing with human voice, but I love peaceful cooking videos where I can enjoy the sound of just cooking, chopping, sizzling etc. And worst of all, my least favourite music is jazz! 😂😂😂 It’s frantic, repetitive and discordant to my ears. I feel dizzy and nauseous. I watched the whole thing with the mute on, so it was a silent video for me, because I can’t subtract music from videos. Please would you consider making videos with no music? That way, music lovers can add their own music from another device, while the cooking video plays. Bless you and hope you get more subs in future - as I said, the food looks wonderful.❤

[@kimberlyjackson4058]

This looks so yummy but hahaha i caught ur typo can u tell me how to FLY that tofu again🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@scrane5500]

This looks great! Such a shame the phytoestrogen in tofu is so maligned while the actual estrogen in dairy is ignored even though it's the one that increases hormonal cancer risks. Anyway, thank you so much for posting

[@gb4771]

I am not sure but maybe it does only on people who are not Asian. I am Chinese and we eat tofu. There were many centenarians in my family. Many people eat tofu in Japan too. The life expectancy is very high there.

[@patriciaweaver7735]

​@@gb4771thanks for pointing it out because folks want to find something wrong with everything we eat. I say eat as healthy as you can and enjoy your life sheesh. Great video too❤

[@carolinebennett5615]

Debbie Downer. People have been eating both tofu and dairy for a very long time. We’re fine.

[@t1sk1jukka]

@@carolinebennett5615we have not been eating dairy every single day in our lives, this is very new thing in the western countries and in asia dairy have been used much less. Nowadays the animals are bumped with antibiotics or other stuff as well

[@Satya2btrue]

Tofu not being good due to phytoestrogens was debunked years ago. The problem being us silly westerners taking something good for us in high doses as a supplement. Low breast cancer in Japan can also see this debunked.
