December roll call! and recipe~ Kristi

[Guest guest]

Hi Kristi. Thanks for that tofu tip; i will have to try that

one. Your recipe for paprikas mushrooms sounds a lot

like a recipe i enjoy called Cauliflower Paprikash.

You might want to look it up in our files and see if your son

would like it. i am going to try your mushroom recipe.

Great to have you here.

Paprikas(s has the sound of sh in Hungarian) is a technique which can

be used with anything, really. I hadn't thought of cauliflower, but it

sounds like a good idea.

 

I was very irritated at my daughter's wedding. It was catered, but I

made a large steamer tray of paprikas mushrooms and when the caterer

talked about the things on the buffet, he said he " didn't know what

kind of little animals " were in that dish. Since I made it especially

for the vegetarians who were guests, I stood up and said as nicely as

I could that there were no animals in it at all!

 

The way of cooking tofu straight from a frozen state to rapidly

boiling water seems to keep the interstices where the ice crystals

were and that makes the texture. Then I put it between two boards on a

slant to drain it and it keeps the textured shape.

 

What marinades do you all like best for tofu?
