Guest guest Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 I haven't posted here in long time, but I'm hoping your expertise might help me out! I seem to be totally incapable of cooking tofu. When using cubed firm tofu in a curry, for example, how do you avoid the tofu breaking up into tiny pieces during the cooking process? Look forward to your tips.

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 I like to pre-cook my tofu cubes by frying them in some hot vegetable oil before stirring them into soups, stews or skillet meals. I find that if I crisp-brown the outside of the cubes first, and then add them towards the end of the cooking process of whatever I am making, the tofu will stay together and not get mushed. I am sure others here will have advice and tips. ~ PT ~ " I am particularly found of the little groves of oak trees.
