Just gonna say this video gives me a lot of hope. Haven’t tried any of these yet but so much clearly communicated helpful information. Thanks a bunch for the work here

For anyone that doesn't think in advance to do much prep ....i keep my tofu in the freezer and when I'm ready to cook, i defrost it in the microwave and then squeeze out the water by hand (as shown in the video). Season however you like and then bake/fry. I usually season with s&p, onion powder, garlic powder, acv, soy, paprika, green seasoning (mix of herbs), liquid smoke. Allow to marinade for a few minutes, coat with corn starch and fry. It's really crispy with the corn starch. And I'm eating this while watching the video. Tofu all the way. All these recipes look amazing. I've yet to try tofu in a dessert. Might try that one soon.

I didn't like the texture in that dish as much as I did using extra firm tofu on another scramble. I love all of the recipes and tips you provided in this video. I'm only 9 months into whole food plant based eating. I only incorporate tofu about every other week due to the fat content. But my non vegan husband is a runner so needs more calories than me so the protein in tofu and the extra calories will be good for him. I will save this video for future viewing. Thank you!! Linda
