Todays a special edition of #FediArmyChef as I attempt 3 recipes:
- Salt and Pepper Tofu
- Korean Fried Chicken
- Braised Tofu*

* I tried this a couple of weeks ago and shared it, but I’m trying again with salt reduced soy.

I’ll probably be slowly posting these all afternoon.

For the tofu, I’m attempting this Salt and Pepper Tofu recipe from The Woks of Life.

Salt and Pepper Tofu: Authentic Recipe - The Woks of Life

Our Chinese Salt and Pepper Tofu recipe is a vegan/vegetarian interpretation of a classic Cantonese flavor pairing. It's a new favorite!

The first step is to brine the tofu. That’s done, so I’ll leave that for at least an hour before I come back to it. #FediArmyChef

While I wait for the tofu to brine, I’m going to prep the veggies for all the dishes.

The recipes actually called for green chilli’s, but…. Birds Eye will be fine? Right? 🌶️

Veggies are prepped and rice is on, so I’m going to move on to the braised tofu while the tofu finishes brining (is that a word?) #FediArmyChef
