Preparing this tofu requires a bit of planning, but it’s well worth it. Start by draining the tofu, pressing out the water, wrapping it in food service film and freezing it overnight. Thaw the tofu and the press out the rest of the water, as much as you possibly can. Then, crumble the tofu into fine pieces, similar to the texture of ground beef.
Crumbled tofu can be used in a variety of ways: Add tomato paste, garlic, oregano, tomato sauce and basil to create a meatless sauce for pasta. Add taco seasoning to add to burritos or use in tacos and fajitas. Add soy sauce, ginger and garlic to use in rice bowls. Add turmeric, garlic, paprika, peppers and onions for a tasty tofu breakfast scramble.
