Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Hey gang, A few months ago I froze a block of firm tofu, defrosted and crumbled it, and, using some recipe I found, I made my daughter some scrambled tofu. I can't figure out exactly what I did back then. I have looked at the recipe in our files as well as some others, including one from a book. I didn't use any other veggies - my daughter wanted just the tofu. I used some herbs and, I believe, some soy sauce. I tried to recreate it today but it was a sad substitute. (Very disappointing for a girl who had been waiting hours for the tofu to defrost.) Today I used nutritional yeast, tamari, salt and pepper. Does anyone have a very simple but yummy TNT scrambled tofu recipe that just uses defrosted tofu and herbs/seasonings? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Sharon, I don't use frozen tofu since I prefer a softer consistency, but you can easily substitute frozen tofu. You might want to try it with fresh tofu just for fun and comparison! (A little more " eggy " that way.)* Scrambled Tofu 1 lb. extra-firm tofu Olive oil as needed 1/4 tsp black pepper (I use heavy cracked pepper) 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast 1/2 tsp basil 1/2 tsp oregano 1 tsp parsley 1/4 tsp turmeric 1/2 tsp salt or 1 T. tamari if preferred In a medium bowl, mash the tofu with a fork, leaving some small chunks. Add spices. Mix well and cook until some of the tofu is browned. Enjoy! * For a softer scrambled tofu with better flavor, add 1/4 cup of water to the pan, let the water cook down and brown the tofu. (The water helps the spices permeate the tofu...) >> Does anyone have a very simple but yummy TNT scrambled tofu recipe that just uses defrosted tofu and herbs/seasonings?
