THANKSGIVING
Thanksgiving is about family and love, and about being appreciative for what you have. This year is definitely going to be harder to be thankful for, but it has really helped me get closer with others with a deeper connection. I am also so thankful for the people on frontlines like doctors, nurses, etc. because they have worked so hard to fight for our community. Happy Thanksgiving!
Now put your sauce on the side because we are going to TACKLE THE TOFU 1. Take out your tofu and put it on a paper towel and start dabbing it to get out all the water. 2. YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE TO GET ALL THE WATER OUT
BECAUSE IT WILL GIVE YOUR TOFU A BAD TASTE IF YOU
DON’T! 3. Next you want to cut it into little cubes so that they cook faster and absorb the marinade better, after this take a new paper towel and dab it up again just to make sure there is no water left. 4. You are now going to add your tofu to the sauce bowl and you can mix this with your hands or a spoon, once all the tofu is covered in the marinade you can set it aside for 3 minutes so it can fully absorb the sauce. 5. Turn the heat up to a little below high and let the pan get warm. (DO NOT PUT ANYTHING IN THE PAN JUST LET IT GET WARM) 6. After the pan is warm put your tofu in and cook it on each side until it has a nice brown color, right before you turn of the heat add the garlic using a garlic mincer and squeeze the lemon juice on top, mix it around with the heat at medium, once the garlic has some color turn off the heat and remove it from the stove. 7. Serve it with rice or even brussel sprouts and enjoy. It’s DELICIOUS!
