Steps:
- Open the cheese strings and cut each in half. Cover and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until completely frozen.
- Combine flour and cornstarch in a small bowl. Combine the Italian and Panko bread crumbs in a separate shallow dish. In third small bowl, whisk eggs and olive oil until well combined.
- Dip each cheese stick half into the egg mixture and then gently roll into the flour mixture.
- Put back into the egg mixture and roll until coated. Finally, place into the bread crumbs pressing the crumbs on each piece of cheese to make sure it's coated all around so the cheese doesn't leak out.
- Place in the freezer while the oil preheats. Preheat oil to 350°F. It should be hot enough that a few crumbs dropped into the oil will bubble.
- In small batches, place breaded cheese sticks into the hot oil for about 2 minutes or just until browned. Do not overcook or the cheese will leak out.
- Serve hot with warm pasta sauce.

Steps:
- Wrap tofu in a clean towel and place onto a plate. Set another plate on top, and place a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for about 20 minutes; drain and discard the accumulated liquid.
- Cut tofu into 1-inch by 2-inch chunks. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt onto one slide; flip over and sprinkle remaining 1/4 teaspoon on the other.
- Heat oil in a wok or large skillet. To test if the oil is ready, dip a chopstick or wooden spoon in it; if bubbles rise, it is ready. If the oil smokes, it is too hot.
- Gently place 5 to 8 pieces of tofu at a time in hot oil using metal tongs. Be very careful as oil may splatter; use a splatter guard if possible. Fry tofu until golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Drain tofu on a plate lined with several paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

- Place a large non-stick skillet over medium heat then allow it to warm up. Spread about 1½ tsp unsalted butter on 1 side of each piece of bread then set aside.
- Place 4 pieces of the sourdough, butter side down, in the skillet then immediately top with sliced cheese. Cover skillet with the lid slightly ajar. Doing so will trap heat inside the skillet but allow steam to escape and melt the cheese. When the bread is golden brown on the bottom and the cheese has melted, which takes about 2-3 minutes, transfer to a serving dish. Place the remaining bread, buttered side down, into the skillet to toast.
- Meanwhile, top melted cheese with sliced tomatoes, fried eggs and the herb of your choice. Season with a light dusting of paprika, salt and pepper.
- When the bread in the skillet is grilled to a crispy golden brown, place the slices on top of the sandwiches and enjoy!

- Add the tofu cubes, tamari or soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper to a large bowl, mix until well combined, and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.
- Drain the tofu and transfer 1/3 of the tofu cubes into a freezer bag with 1 or 2 tbsp of cornstarch and toss to coat. Repeat this step with the remaining tofu and cornstarch. Add more cornstarch if needed.
- If you don’t want to use a freezer or plastic bag, just add the cornstarch to a shallow dish, then the tofu cubes and toss to coat.
- Once the tofu cubes are coated with the cornstarch, heat the oil in a skillet and add the tofu cubes. I used extra virgin olive oil, but any oil will do.
VEGAN FRIED EGG WITH A GOOPY VEGAN YOLK SAUCE PERFECT FOR ...

- FIRST, MAKE THE YOLK: Get a large pot of water boiling and add your peeled and diced veggies. Boil for 15 minutes or until veggies are fork tender. Strain the veggies, reserving the water in a large bowl, and add them to a food processor. Add the remainder of the yolk ingredients to the food processor including 1/4 cup of the reserved water. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust flavors as necessary.
- THEN, MAKE THE EGG WHITES: Drain your tofu and slice it into four 1/2-inch-thick rectangles*. Use the top of a wide-mouth mason jar or circular cookie cutter to cut the tofu into circles about the size of a fried egg. See notes for ideas on what to do with the scraps**.
- NEXT, STUFF THE EGGS: Load a [flavor injector|https://amzn.to/2ZV7E3P ] with the yolk mixture and carefully pierce the side of the tofu circle with it. You want the tip of the injector to reach just past the middle of the circle without piercing the other side. From here, what you’re trying to do is create a pocket for the yolk while keeping the injection site as small as possible. With that in mind, VERY carefully move the injector back and forth, making sure you keep it level. Tilt it to one side and repeat this back and forth motion, then tilt to the other and repeat again. Then, carefully inject the yolk into the tofu. Do this very slowly and stop as soon as you see a lump form in the tofu.
- NOW, COOK THE EGGS: Heat the coconut oil in a large cast iron skillet on medium heat and carefully add your eggs. Cook for about 5 minutes, until you see the sides start to brown. Then, sprinkle a generous amount of [kala namak|https://amzn.to/2OaN0qZ ], onion powder, and black pepper on top of each egg and carefully flip them. Cook for about 5 more minutes until that side's edges start to brown. Sprinkle the spices on this side and carefully flip again. Keep flipping until you have a nice egg-looking patty.

- Add the oats, coconut, and salt to the base of a food processor or high-speed blender and pulse until a fine flour forms. Add the maple syrup to the food processor along with 1 tablespoon of filtered water and pulse until a damp dough forms. Add additional water in 1 tablespoon increments, if necessary – the mixture should look relatively dry, but hold together when you pinch it. Use a spatula to firmly and evenly press the base into the pan, then bake in the middle rack of the oven for 10 minutes while you prepare the filling.
- Quickly rinse the food processor, then add the tofu, melted chocolate, coconut milk, and salt to it. Blend until a thick and even texture forms. Pour the filling over the pre-cooked base and use a spatula to spread it out smoothly and evenly.
- Top with vegan marshmallows, then bake in the middle rack of the oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing and serving; the marshmallows will be puffed up when first removed, but will deflate with time.

- It Looks Weird. Advertisement. Grilled Tofu and Squash With Chimichurri Sauce and Couscous. Some people claim they hate tofu because it looks strange. You open the package, pour out the water, and you are left with a spongy white block of curd.
- It Has a Bad Reputation. “Chicken-Fried” Tofu Steaks. When I say the word “tofu,” what’s the first thought that comes into your mind? Hippie? Health food?
- It’s Fake Food. Advertisement. Kidney Bean and Tofu Burger. Uh, no, it isn’t. Tofu is made from soy milk which comes from soybeans. Tofu is a vegetable, a plant-based food.
- It Tastes Mushy & Like Eating a Sponge. Spicy Balsamic Tofu Veggie Kebabs. When you take a block of tofu out of the package, it is wet, mushy, and spongy.
- It Has No Flavor. Sesame Tofu. A pet peeve of mine has become the way talented chefs treat tofu. Whether I’m watching a cooking show on television or reading recipes in magazines, people are instructed to drain the tofu, cut it up and cook it.
- The Texture is Strange. Grilled Buffalo Tofu Po’ Boy with Apple Slaw. Even if you press the tofu and season it, you still have to cook it correctly and part of that is cutting the tofu into pieces appropriate for the dish.
- It Doesn’t Taste Like Chicken. Crispy Tofu Nuggets. Some people eat a tofu dish like these amazing Crispy Tofu Nuggets and declare that it doesn’t take like chicken.
- It’s Bad for My Health. Even though soy has been the staple of the diets of many cultures for thousands of years, there are a lot of conflicting opinions out there about the health benefits and consequences of eating soy.
