I love anything squishy like a marshmallow, chalky like musk pencils, or really gummy chewy like Haribo gummy bears.

    Baked tofu. It’s the blandest substance in the known universe, but it’s cripsy and chewy and dense, and your brain is just like fuckyeah, protein.

    Yes you can season the outside of it, but that’s true for literally any substance. Hey, if you put barbecue sauce on carpet, it becomes barbecue flavour. No kidding.

      I like it fried for those same reasons.

        A couple of things to know:

        You need the ‘extra firm’ or ‘hard’ tofu - it should be as firm as a cooked chicken breast. The softer ones are just nasty for this.

        Cut in smallish cubes - 1cm is perfect - toss first with salt and a little olive oil, then a spoonful of cornflour.

        Spread out on parchment, then bake in a hot oven until they get some colour - around 20 min depending on a bunch of factors.

        A little chilli and garlic power in there makes them amazing, but now we’re getting into actual flavour :D

          Thanks for the tips! Will definitely be testing this out! Nothing wrong with adding some flavour 😉
