RE: Cook with Us #13: Healthy Vegan Tofu Tiramisu

in #cookwithus7 years ago

I've been looking forward to reading this entry since I saw your photo! I love your story about Joel's childhood experience with his friend's family making tofu. I love reading recipes and anything about food but when there is a story behind it, the recipe really comes to life. You can envision the people and their surroundings and how things smelled or sounded... I really appreciate you bringing this recipe to life!

Tofu is such a wonderful ingredient and to see it being made is magical. You really preserved the traditional flavors of tiramisu while making a vegan version. The texture of your dessert looks identical to the original version. Its a really soft dessert so adding tofu is perfect! Your photography is stunning too! Thank you for sharing your story and your dessert recipe!

He always seems to have all these stories about his time back in Mauritius. And he likes telling all about them. And I thought this one fit perfectly with the theme. I’ve been trying to create a whole storyline behind some of the recipes so as not to bore my readers and myself. Sometimes the history can be the recipe, an ingredient or something completely unrelated. But it’s not always easy to get the right story and sometimes time forbids me from going into too much details. But I think it’s s good exercise and the accompanying recipe/food just helps to cleanse and heals the soul. Thank you for taking the time to go through the history behind me choosing tofu for this week’s contest.

I have recorded a version of your story @foodforsoul - so interesting getting to know all of you. Love your recipe - sounds scrumptious

Oh that’s nice can’t wait to hear the story told vocally. Thank you for providing exposure to my post.

Well deserved recognition @foodforsoul
