Seriously. I can eat tofu everyday for the entire month. It’s such a versatile ingredient. There are so many possibilities that I know my palate won’t get bored. Alas. Anything taken to an excess can’t be good for you. Everything in moderation right?
BUT one more day of tofu won’t hurt, no?
I’ve been suffering from a meat and alcohol-induced walking coma since I got back from Missouri. The Missouri I experienced was sort of a meatopia with free-flowing wine. By no means am I a vegan nor do I abstain completely from imbibing. I eat meat and enjoy wine occasionally; but for the most part, I’m a vegan-leaning teetotaler. So needless to say, my body is in a bit of a shock.
So to give my body a break, I decided to make a bunch of vegan side dishes. Dubu jorim (soy-braised tofu) was on the top of my list, because my husband absolutely loves this dish. He really immersed himself in the meat-and-wine lifestyle while we were in Missouri; so he is due for a little vegan protein.
I wouldn’t be doing it justice if I called the Big Green Egg a grill. You can roast, bake, smoke, steam, boil, and, of course, grill just about everything on/in it. It really is a remarkable cooking device. And my brother has become a master at the Big Green Egg since the last time I saw him.
Indulge me for a second.
I think I have the cutest nieces and nephews. The cutie above was kissing everyone goodnight a few weeks ago. But she stopped when she got to me. She told me she couldn’t kiss me goodnight “just yet” because she loved me the most; and I had to be the last person she kissed that night. AWWWWWWW… You can’t get any sweeter or cuter than that. Right?
