Answers:
I like to make tofu-katsu... the tofu version of the Japanese Tonkatsu (usually make with pork).
First you drain some firm (preferably fresh) tofu, cut it into cubes and then roll in flour. Then roll again in a bowl of soymilk or egg substitute and then again in panko (Japanese breadcrumbs). Then deep fry them until brown and serve with bulldog sauce (that's just a name by the way... it's actually made of fruit and veg!)
Or I make a Japanese style casserole with a mixture of conbu/seaweed stock, miso paste, mirin and soy sauce. I pour this over various veg and tofu in a casserole dish and put in the oven.
Tonight I made a creamy pasta sauce with silk tofu... just blend together tofu, parsley, basil, salt, garlic and soymilk to thin. Heat in a pan with some mushrooms and spinach and pour over pasta.
Lots of people don't like tofu but it's my favourite food... it's so versatile and does wonders for your health. And those that say it has no taste obviously haven't tried good tofu. There are so many different types in Japan... it's just that here in the west, good tofu is hard to come by.
