I need to find yuba. Btw - super good energy in this vid.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

You really do. It has changed my life! And thank you. I guess my excitement for the food really comes through. HAHA.

[@debbietampasheher3682]

Did you get a chance to make it, Pamela? I got some yuba on sale, shelf stable one, on sale. It was all crushed. I got a good deal on it and I figured I could make something cool. Thank you for the recipe!

[@mayraangulo6868]

I just made this with homemade yuba and taste amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe

[@MonsonMadeThis]

I'm impressed that you made homemade yuba! That's awesome! And thanks for letting me know that you loved the recipe.

[@reachtrita]

Awesome! Yuba can be made into Thai omelette as well. Just dip the layered sheets in light batter that is seasoned with soy sauce and white pepper, the pan fry. It’s delicious!!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Great idea! I'm absolutely obsessed with yuba right now. I can't wait to experiment more with it.

[@Pamela-ro8vh]

Oh boy. That sounds delish.

[@Tina2aT]

Hope Michael makes this on his channel.

[@Nozarks1]

Sounds delicious. What’s in the batter.

[@leahholmberg2693]

So, can we assume that your birthday falls in the Virgo sign? I am a Virgo and a perfectionist,too. Great video. I enjoyed it.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

I'm the epitome of a virgo. Haha. Shrugs.

[@sjwoodland31]

My kind of people! #virgoaf

[@sophiagrande8966]

Love that you used yuba, so original, and as you said no questionable ingredients! Think I'll make some nachos with this :)

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Nachos would be amazing. I have tried a few other flavor combinations aside from BBQ sauce, and I'm in love. Definitely more yuba recipes in store. Thanks!

[@Nozarks1]

Just made this. It was delicious. From the veg pulled porks, this had the best texture and flavor.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Yay! So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!

[@nes8930]

Wow never heard of yuba but gonna search for it at the Asian market and make a version of this, thanks! Looks delicious!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

It'm not sure why it's not more popular! it's so good.

[@sarahdee374]

Made this today! I found some vegan "hawaiian" style buns. Michael, I loved using a little mayo before I toasted the bun. It always confounds me: yuba is so thin it always amazes me how long it takes to totally rehydrate. I took some shortcuts however. Used the water, veggie broth and some nooch to rehydrate. Then just a bit of onion powder, pepper and store bought BBQ sauce per your cooking instructions. I skipped the liquid smoke (sometimes it upset my stomach), soy sauce (salt) dry rub (don't have any), and onion. It was so good. In addition since I'm trying to minimize processed fats, I made my slaw dressing with 1/2 cup of silken tofu and 1/2 C (after soaking) of cashews along with your spices. I live in the South and I think this BBQ topped with slaw in a sammich is tradition. Thanks so much, you give us so many delicious recipes!!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thank you so much for this lovely comment. I'm so glad you gave it a go. For me, this is all about learning the technique so you can riff on it. Yuba can be scary, but once you get a few tricks up your sleeve, it's quite a magical ingredient.

[@sarahdee374]

@@MonsonMadeThis I just recently located it, before this even my local Asian place didn't stock it. I think that was Covid/import related. A few months ago I did find the yuba sticks on Amazon and have been using them. I really love 'em. I rehydrate with Not-chicken stock and alternate using with soy curls for stir fries etc. They have a sort of chewy consistency that I really love. But this BBQ was next level Michael!

[@MSKPELLEGRINO]

Holy cow. I love this. Definitely need to find this.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

It's so good! I'm obsessed.

[@1auntievenom]

Thank you That looks awesome. I hope that I can find it at my asian market

[@julieoyundo]

Omg....that looks so f-ing good!!! I need to try this.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

It's as good as it looks! Thanks for watching.

[@TKevinBlanc]

That looks great. If you can't find tofu skin, be sure to try soy curls. Available on Amazon (and from the Butler's website). Exactly one ingredient: whole soy beans, fiber and all. With the outstanding treatment you gave that recipe, they'd be equally good. Some days, you just need a sammich. You *clearly* needed a sammich. :)

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Soy Curls are great. I have s few recipes on my channel that use them. Thanks!

[@TKevinBlanc]

@@MonsonMadeThis I'll look!

[@AllBeingsAreLoveAmen]

jackfruit is nutritional value, i would much rather have jackfruit sandwich

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Honestly, I've really tried with jackfruit. I even have a few recipes on this channel with it... I just don't love it. Yuba, to me, is so so much better. Have you tried it?

[@daniellebiedenharn8622]

Yum!!!! I have to make this! Thanks for sharing! 🤩

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Let me know what you think if you do give it a try,.

[@nellievance]

I'm sold! And props to cooking while wearing a white shirt! 😂

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Haha. I'm a professional. I also grew up with an Italian mom who always seemed to where white when making her spaghetti sauce. It's in my blood to temp fate.

[@XX-gy7ue]

EXCELLENT VIDEO , just a few options - maybe put a few fennel seeds ( half a teaspoon ) in the pan at the beginning - use vegan pork flavor or some vegan bacon bits just before taking it out of the pan - and maybe a few pieces ( a lot ) of carrot in the coleslaw and a spray of vinegar , but great video !

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks for the tips!

[@XX-gy7ue]

@@MonsonMadeThis , I should have written sooner , because you're a great and fun cook !

[@stacybrady2458]

Can you find yuba in Vegas?! Also, please figure out a cafe rio sweet pork replacement with this!! 🙏🙏🙏 It’s the one thing I miss being vegan.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

That's where I found it! SF Market on Spring Mountain and Decatur is my go-to.

[@injunsun]

I immediately thought of lasagne noodles when I saw this. I would be quite interested if you try it as a pasta substitute. Also, I make an excellent vegan BBQ sauce, starting with mirepoix, which itself makes the sauce almost as if it has a meat substitute in it already. By the time I cook down the combo of browned faux meat of whatever kind with the sauce, it's so good, my omni husband absolutely loves it.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

I'm gonna give lasagna a try. I bet it would work really well. Thanks!

[@feelingfineat49amanda80]

I’ve some of this in the cupboard. I was going to wrap it around seitan as I’ve heard it’s a great chicken skin replica. Your recipe looks easier 😜🙌🙌💚💚💚

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Did you give it a try!?

[@sweetspyder]

Looks fantastic!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thank you!

[@bluemayim]

that does look VERY much like the real deal. i would know, i'm from Memphis, we BBQ everything here! Thank you for using actual BBQ sauce and not some kind of seasoned up V-8 stuff! i would like to know how this compares with jack fruit BBQ?

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks! Seasoned-up V8? Haha. Is that a thing? I don't really like jackfruit, I mean, it's fine, so I would say this is much better. :)

[@barrbuff]

I can't believe so much attention was given to the troll, he should have been ignored. Why put wind in his sails and let him repeatedly spew garbage. Who cares what he thinks?

[@MonsonMadeThis]

I try to respond to every comment as if it's a "real" questions or concern. I normally give people the benefit of the doubt in the beginning. Some people's real honest questions sound like they're trolling me, while some trolling sounds like an honest question in the beginning. Beyond that, I let my Virgo need to be "right" kick in sometimes, and yeah.

[@christalvanlear9314]

With the coleslaw, my grandma always added just a bit of vinegar to hers. Her coleslaw was the only coleslaw I would eat. Haven’t had it in 19 years since passed away. None other taste like hers.

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Flavor memories are some of the strongest memories we have. It's so great to be able to take a bite of something and be transported back to a different time and place. Nothing can replace the food she put her love into, but it's comforting to know that her memory is still strong when you think of what she used to cook.

[@max-jayderomero7743]

Wow, you really sold me on this! Need to locate some yuba and make a PP Sandwich!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Sadly, finding it is the most difficult part of the recipe. Mylkguys.com sells Hodo brand. But the best and most economical bet is if you have an Asian market near you.

[@autumnrain1892]

Yes please!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

It's so good!

[@tomithot261]

Another great idea. I love using tofu for my protein ... this is a fantastic option for my stir fry dishes. Applause ...

[@MonsonMadeThis]

It's such a great sandwich. Reminds me that I need to get some more yuba so I can make this again. It's not the easiest stuff to find, so I gotta stock up when I do.

[@cathykrueger1035]

Can't have coleslaw without vinegar!!!

[@ashleywalters5949]

was wondering about that as well

[@MonsonMadeThis]

I think I proved that you can. HAHA. You can definitely add it if you want. I get acidity from the pickles, and not having the liquid in the slaw helps keep it from getting too watery.

[@lisaclark2028]

This looks phenomenal!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thanks, Lisa!

[@Janet_Price]

Wow, this looks delicious. Though I'm never looking for "exact," I really like to find a good "similar." Though I don't eat mock meats regularly, I do want them on occasion and I don't really care about the health aspects, though less fat is always better. I made some sloppy joe's with gardein crumbles and it was fantastic...... Yuba tofu - talk about leaving nothing to waste! Using the skin from tofu!!!

[@theresaallison6180]

Texture wise, how does this compare to the pulled pork mushrooms?

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Honestly, it's similar, but this one is a bit softer. The mushroom definitely have more of a chew, where as this is a bit more tender.

[@jennifergordon3617]

Michael, do you get a lot of questions from females regarding soy products? Just curious on how much soy we should eat

[@MonsonMadeThis]

I never get questions about that, actually. But being that I'm not a female, a doctor, or a nutritionist, I really don't know the answer to your question. Sorry.

[@jennifergordon3617]

Damn that looks good!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Thank you thank you.

[@wbey2692]

“Jackfruit has no nutritional value” Whaaaat? That’s just not true. It’s high in vitamins and nutrients. It does lack protein though except for the seeds. The seeds are high in protein. But to say it has no nutritional value is a false and miseducated statement. Thank you for sharing this yuba recipe.

Have you tried making pulled "pork" with banana peels?! It's amazing!!

[@MonsonMadeThis]

Eeee... I've seen a few people make it online and I'm not really convinced. Is there one recipe that's better than the rest?

[@notgoingoutside]

@@MonsonMadeThis I wasn't convinced at first too and wasn't interested in making until someone gave me organic bananas and decided I might as well try! Use peels from bananas that are not yet spotted, gently scrape the inner side with a spoon to remove the stringy bits, tear them into strips, then sautee with a bit of olive oil and when it shrinks down a little add BBQ sauce. I used Stubb's and I was so impressed. It takes a lot of peels to make enough for a few sandwiches but it's so worth a try. My freezer is full of unpeeled bananas now. 😅

[@karrieharvey838]

I thought it seemed to good to be true as well until I tried the banana peels at a potluck. Everyone loved it and it was the women's first time making it on a whim bcas she had peels from freezing bananas. It was basically shredded peels with seasoning and bbq sauce.

I’ll def be trying your version! I’ve never heard of yuba so it’ll be interesting if I can source it at our international market. I recently found your channel and your oat milk video gave me the confidence to try to make it because who doesn’t love oat milk in coffee 💕
