    I filmed this week of food about a month ago, before Miss Corona, so if it makes you a little bit sad to watch while your local Trader Joe's might be somewhat empty & buckwild... I apologize (or if you aren't able to leave the house to get groceries at all....) What a time....

    This comment may get lost and you might never see it, but I’ll post it in hopes you or someone else will read it. For the last month or so, I’ve been struggling with body image and eating and everything else in the genre. But today in the middle of a bad moment I remembered your videos and tried to find you again. The way you film your videos and talk about food is something that’s so calming. You don’t discuss calories, you don’t say “I had a big lunch so i’m gonna skip dinner” or anything along those lines. You talk about food in terms of nutrition and if you’re full and what your body is feeling. But you also don’t make a big deal about it, it’s just who you are. I wanted to thank you because you make me want to be kind to my body.

    You have to try this with tofu: freeze it, unfreeze it, if you want you can press it, then cut it in slices, put those slices in a container with soy sauce and it absorbs it fast af. Then just throw it in the pan, I usually use some olive oil because it takes amazing if it's a bit fried.

  • @nowayitsjennie

    A really good tofu sandwich filler is smoky tofu:
    - Press the tofu well
    - Slice thinly
    - Marinade in soy sauce or tamari (enough to cover and coat), smoked paprika and a dash of liquid smoke if you have it (it's not super necessary and a little hard to find where I am so I often don't have it). Add a little salt as well if you want your tofu to be as salty as something like bacon or cured meats, it depends what you're having it with and if there's enough salt in the other ingredients. Marinade for at least half an hour, more is better.
    - Shallow fry in oil until crispy at the edges. The thinner your slices and the longer you fry, the crispier it will be.
    It's a really good substitute for bacon or cured meats. I ate some today in a sandwich with sauerkraut and spicy mustard, or you could have it as a TLT (tofu lettuce tomato). I reckon it would be great with some melted vegan cheese.

      emily ewing instead of slicing down the middle and cutting it that way, you cut around the core (which is so much better)
