If you claim you don't like tofu, there's one reason for that: You're doing it wrong. By itself, tofu isn't going to taste good. But the transformation into something flavorful is easy. Tofu soaks up spice like a sponge, and it's incredibly versatile when it comes to preparation. You can make it super crispy, blend it up into a sauce, turn it into dairy-free cheese, scramble it—the options are endless. When you prepare correctly, you won't even be able to tell it started as a block of curdled soy milk in the first place. That's a promise.
