Hi Flo, I use my air fryer with a tiny bit of oil to fry all of my tofu. Then I toss it into whatever sauce the family likes that day. It's simplified my life so much.
In case you missed it at the end, the paperback option for my Chinese Homestyle cookbook is now available! Link in the description. Super delicious and easy to make tofu dish that will make you go back for seconds and thirds. Happy Sunday! 💕
Thank you Flo and Dude.. great dish.. I follow a plant based diet and eat tofu regularly.. I was raised eating tofu.. love it💕I now love in Southern California but was born and raised in Vancouver. Enjoy your channel..
100% agree. I made this dish when my tofu hating friend came to dinner, and he wrinkled his nose and said he'd pass on that dish, thanks. Then his kid decided to try it, and they couldn't stop eating it. My friend, seeing this, decides maybe he's going to take a little bite and see about it. "OH! It tastes like Yorkshire pudding, but with garlic soy sauce gravy!" Make it for your friends who think they hate tofu. I converted at least one skeptic.
Flo, Love your cooking! In regard to the your oil container, check and see if there is “relief” hole in the stopper that might have plugged. I have a 750ml oil container and found out that if I (accidentally) cover the relief hole the oil stopped pouring.
Thanks for sharing ur recipe! Tried to fry my tofu with an air fryer & it was as soft & crunchy as fried with oil. My friend said he even coated his tofu with a little starch with an air fryer & it made it even crunchier. This air fryer is a game changer! Less oil, no smell, more goodness & more convenience 🙌🏻
Thx for tofu recipe! CONGRATULATIONS on your Chinese Homestyle Cookbook!!👏👏 Found it on Amazon🤩 Can't wait to try out recipes for upcoming Chinese New Year🎉
Hi Flo! You and dude always crack me up when arguing about the thumb size ginger, I love it! it’s in almost in every ginger related dish video, please don’t stop! It always makes my day when I see ginger in your recipe I know it’s coming, it’s another trademark of yours, please produce a shirt about it and I will purchase it, something like (Flo thumb size ginger 👍🏼 on the front) and (Dudes thumb size ginger 👎🏼on the back) or both on the front or something cleaver, I know you want to😉 Just throwing some ideas there! I am so happy for you both and congratulations on the new cook book! I am looking forward to getting it soon!
Flo, thanks for excellent recipe. To reduce intake of oil , I air fried the tofu instead and it came out really good. Air fry for 5 mins each side. I would love to see some air fry recipes from you! Thanks for all your great recipes, and to Dude too
LOL! Tofu should only be used in Asian cooking... in my opinion. Tofu used as a meat substitute to taste like meat has never made sense to me. Like tofu burgers... ick.
🙋🏽♀️ Flo & Dude! The fam loves tofu ‘cuz it basically takes on whatever flavor it’s being cooked with. Especially love fried tofu. This looks so good! Gonna try it. Oh! I received an email that your “Chinese Home Cooking” book is available on Amazon! Yay! It’s in my cart. Must have! Congratulations on your hard work! God Bless Your Family!
I like your RU-vid channel because I can see what things are supposed to look like at each stage of the cooking. (Im a beginner) will the cookbook lose this?
Never had this with tofu but IMO anything with this black bean sauce or similar is extremely dank.....chicken, pork, beef, along with some green pepper.....probably roadkill possum would be good like this.
I have all the ingredients except I have not been able to find fermented black beans locally. But I do have black bean garlic sauce. I have never tasted fermented black bean. Do you think black bean garlic sauce could be a good substitute for black beans in the recipe?
I think your black bean garlic sauce may be essentially what I made from all the other ingredients. Since you have that, use it along with the onion, tofu and green onion and you’ll be good!
@@FloLum Thank you! That is what I was thinking but didn't know if the beans were fermented differently making a very different flavor or something. I will try it very soon!
Hi Flo and Dude, your Black Bean Tofu looks so delicious. I'll definitely be trying to make this dish soon. I noticed that you used the same purple (pasta?) bowl, here, as you did for your Instant Pot Black Bean Chicken dish. Could you please tell me the dimensions of that bowl? I want to get one for when I'm making your Black Bean Chicken dish, knowing it will fit my 8 qt Instant Pot as it does yours. Thanks, in advance! Take care, and stay safe!
This looks really good! Not a big fan of tofu, so do you think this would work with chicken or maybe beef? Should I double the sauce? I still have a lot of black beans left over from making your black bean spare rib dish (wonderful) so would like to use them again for something else.
I enjoy your channel Flo and Dude. Do you have to rinse the black bean? I am afraid that the flavor would be affected. Can I substitute with those ready fried tofu to skip a few steps 😉?
Hey where are the written instructions to make this and the ingredient list, I am having alot of trouble finding it. I want to make this tomorrow, maybe I'm blind and can't see it..lol!
@@FloLum Flo, I have tried all kinds of tofu my sister and niece love it. I don't know ...I am a strange puppy LOL. But you got me eating lemongrass. Yay. One day I will say Flo guess what I tried tofu and now I like it. 💙💃🎊🎉
