I made tofu for the first time tonight. I made a General's Tso's tofu dinner. First let me comment how gross tofu looks and smells in the package. ewwwww.
I browned the tofu on all sides, mixed up a sauce, added the sauce to the tofu, simmered it down. Poured it over rice. Epic delicious.
After it is cooked, the tofu actually tastes good. I used extra firm, and it had a similar consistency to like a chicken or pork when cooked.
Overall, I am rather pleased.
On a side note, I wanted to start a topic on tofu, but found this one. You all read my mind!
