I *love* crispy tofu in Pad Thai, but all of my Pad Thai comes from the cheap Thai restaurant one neighborhood away from ours, so I've never attempted to cook it myself.
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Art Crawl!!!
I grew up eating tofu. I like it cold with some shoyu. . . or in numerous other forms. I usually prefer it when it's not pretending to be something else.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ryan's a tofu fan. I've never liked it though. I've noticed Ryan's Chinese vocab is strongest, relatively speaking, in food-related matters.

This is my relationship to tofu.
I do like it in Tom Yum soup, which I can now make at home. It is heavy on the YUM.

Oh! In "it's a small world" news, Wallybee had an interpreting job for the police today. It was a long one, didn't finish until 9:30 tonight. One of the police drove her home afterwards (we live a fair distance from the city, almost an hour by train). Turns out he was a policeman in Canberra for eight years, and he arrested my brother on numerous occasions! Isn't that nice?

Ann, that's a ferret.
My parents did a fair amount of the tofu thing in the '70s. (Largely because my mother had health issues that made eight watching critical.) It worked fairly well as a substitute for ground beef in things like meat sauces, where there was something else to add flavor. The texture was kind of off from beef, but I could deal with that.

Thrive to spite them
I'm not a huge tofu fan.
I have a Crock Pot brand slow cooker and I really like it. But I got a really big one and it doesn't work for smaller recipes.
