Question:

I am unable to eat soy products. What can I do for the tofu and tempeh assignments?

— Shyrl Sevey

Answer:

Now, when it comes to the tofu, uh, you know, we do have, um, a, a lentil version, uh, of tofu that, uh, students have used. And, um, um, that, that turns out really nice too. It's got a similar look and, and texture, uh, and even the mouth feel is, um, you know, can be pretty darn close. Um, Tempe, um, you know, can be made with other, like, for example, if you wanna make your own Tempe, um, you know, you can use other legumes. It doesn't have to be, uh, soybeans. Um, traditionally that's the path we go now. But if you wanna do something avant garde, you can, you know, use, uh, garbanzo beans or something else. Um, now when you get to those assignments, um, if what I just mentioned, uh, doesn't provide an obvious solution to you, reach out to us please at support@Rouxbe.com for your individual issue or concern, and we can continue the conversation, okay?
