Tofu BLT "Bacon"
Use this in a BLT sandwich to replace the bacon
SERVES 3 -4
1 lb extra firm tofu, cut into strips shaped like bacon
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
2 tablespoons soya sauce
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 tablespoon sunflowerseed oil (do not use olive oil for this recipe, it requires a neutral flavor oil.
Fry tofu strips on low heat until they are crispy on the outside. The best way to do this is to lay them in the pan in the oil and let them sit for at least 10 minutes, simmering. They should turn easily after that.
Turn them and give them another 10 minutes on the other side, then take the pan off the heat.
Mix the soya sauce with the liquid smoke.
Pour the liquid smoke/soya sauce into the pan and stir the tofu so all sides are coated.
Sprinkle the yeast over all, stir some more, over the heat, until the liquid is gone and the tofu is covered with sticky yeast.
To assemble you sandwich: toast two pieces of your favorite sandwich bread, spread bread with Veganaise, add Toful "Bacon", sliced tomato and leafy green lettuce leaves. Enjoy!
