He loves it completely plain, cooked or dipped in sauce - it sure makes cooking family meals a breeze!Danielle Davis Teslevichhttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1575315773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620220818900512579.post-48830288572031739042009-11-18T18:51:05.439-08:002009-11-18T18:51:05.439-08:00I've made tofu breaded things by dipping in a ...I've made tofu breaded things by dipping in a mixture of cornstarch and water (make it very watery-- thin, not like the paste at all) and then dip in the bread crumbs. It maybe slightly more difficult to get the crust on, but it works. I love fried tofu, but if I can get away with it, I don't fry it. :) Probably because half of my week is spent frying, and it's just so much less time consuming to stick things in the oven!Marikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110357429393082121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620220818900512579.post-40451433787905395732009-11-18T11:45:40.021-08:002009-11-18T11:45:40.021-08:00This looks tasty!

I am also not a fan of frying tofu because I suck at it. One thing for sure is that I freeze the tofu and then thaw it in the fridge for a couple of days. The tofu texture is chewy and easier to fry since the water is easier to expel from it.Yaminettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06853335549418308126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620220818900512579.post-2199543559816942022009-11-12T19:45:23.920-08:002009-11-12T19:45:23.920-08:00Yes-- I've done it with parmesan too.

I've used that as a breading (panko and parm) for eggplant and chicken too, and it's really good.Marikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110357429393082121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620220818900512579.post-52646257263097797552009-11-12T14:23:32.862-08:002009-11-12T14:23:32.862-08:00Hi!

I can't even shred my own cheese). But I like how it's so thin and small-- perfect for this kind of thing. You definitely need a small holed grater. <br />The coconut flakes would be the same-- 1/3 C. The unsweetened kind, for sure. I get those in bulk at my natural foods market. If you did that, it might be good with sweet and sour sauce (kind of like coconut shrimp, if you've ever had that). Let me know how it works out!Marikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110357429393082121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620220818900512579.post-40964041137112015792009-11-11T19:12:56.581-08:002009-11-11T19:12:56.581-08:00Also, for the variation with coconut flakes...How ...Also, for the variation with coconut flakes...How much coconut flakes do you recommend using in place of the cheese?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620220818900512579.post-15267914762873791002009-11-11T19:11:34.942-08:002009-11-11T19:11:34.942-08:00Hi!
