Honey Sesame Tofu is the perfect dinner for meatless Monday or vegetarians. The tofu is fried up crispy and then tossed in a delicious sweet sauce! Another tofu recipe! This time we are making Honey Sesame Tofu! I am all about posting recipes for tofu that will make people LIKE tofu. So many people say, “I don’t like tofu because the texture is weird…”, but I bet 99% of the people who say that, haven’t had tofu cooked properly, and if they did learn to cook it right, they would love it.

Copycat Bang Bang Tofu
Long ago, I used to love ordering Bang Bang shrimp at Asian restaurants. When I lived in Greenwich, CT, there was this one place we always used to go to eat, and they had the most amazing Bang Bang shrimp.

Tofu, like most other things, is very dependent on how you cook it, and most people just don’t ...

General Tso’s Tofu
I love Chinese take out, but sometimes it’s hard to find a great place (especially since we moved from NYC to Atlanta), and after eating all that MSG I get a massive headache. However, I can never seem to get my favorite recipes replicated just right….until now. After seeing a recipe for some General Tso’s Chicken, I thought, ‘Why can’t I make this with tofu?’ The meat is really just he vehicle for the sauce, right? I knew that I wanted to get nice crispy tofu though, and wanted to mix it up instead of baking or dry frying the tofu like how I usually make it. I looked up some ...
