Day 5 going full vegan – Shredded Tofu Skin with Green Peppers


Day 5! I’m really enjoying learning how to cook with different plant-based textures. Today I made shredded tofu skin stir-fried with green peppers.

I blanched the tofu skin first to keep it soft, then sautéed it with ginger, garlic, and chilies. I finished it with a very light starch slurry to keep it silky and glossy.

It’s super simple but the texture is amazing, savory with just a little bit of heat. Really happy with how this one turned out!

    What is the brown sauce? You said ginger, garlic, and chilies…is that with soy sauce and cornstarch?

    How much oil is in this? And how much of everything else? Where’s the recipe (you know – a recipe having a complete list of ingredients and quantities)? Looks really oily but might be worth considering if it didn’t have the oil.

    What’s the texture of Tofu skin like?

    Wondering how well it would work as a replacement for Noodles.

    Thanks!

    Think I’ve seen these soy noodles/sheets in aisle 1 at Pan-Asia Market.

    For someone so new to the vegan diet, you have certainly made some pretty good dishes. Well done, I am glad you are enjoying yourself.
