A month of soy

Monday, February 04, 2008

Welcome to February and the February Tofu Challenge!

For the month of February, we’re challenging ourselves and our readers to create one meal each week using locally made tofu.  We’re lucky here in Philly to have a few local companies who make tofu - one is Fresh Tofu and the other is Nature Soy in Chinatown.  Each of these tofu makers produces several varieties!

In my house right now, I have two blocks of tofu from Fresh Tofu - one refrigerated and one frozen.  I also have tofu noodles and pressed Chinese Five Spice tofu from Sun Kee.  What will I make?  Well, I’m not too sure.  I’m not a big eater of tofu.  I’ve been scouring the internet and my collection of cookbooks for some ideas.  This will no doubt be a very exciting month for me - I love having the opportunity to cook new things!

I’d like to invite FTP readers to join us in Tofu Challenge Month - email me if you’re interested in having your tofu meals profiled here every week!
