Totally Tofu Fall in love with the versatility of this vegan protein
O
n its own, tofu is often considered bland and watery. But the beauty of tofu is that it is a canvas waiting to be painted with a rainbow of flavors. A curd made from soybeans, tofu can be used in a wide variety of dishes as a meat substitute, blended to create “yogurt,” or scrambled as an alternative to eggs and more. The new book, “Totally Tofu: 75 Delicious Protein-Packed Vegan & Vegetarian Recipes,” showcases its adaptability. It includes thoughtful ways to incorporate tofu in snacks, salads, soups and stews, main dishes and even options to satisfy your sweet tooth. Here we have two tofu-centric dishes from the book—one for dinner and the other for dessert—for you to try at home. —Liv Martin
