Kabobs with a Twist

Recommended Posts

The twist is no meat kabobs.

 Mushrooms, potatoes, peppers and cubes of tofu. I froze the tofu, thawed the next day, drained and marinated it in 2 different sauces overnight. Freezing the tofu makes it more chewy and also holds more of the marinade.

Ready for the grill.

I really did like the chew on the tofu, best tofu I've had to date. Actually really didn't miss the meat and I will be doing this cook again. :)

Tofu has never been high on my list of things to eat but this "might" make me think otherwise. Which two sauces did you use?

I hope you do try it, extra firm is the one to buy. One sauce was one that I had made for ribs, it was garlicky with soy, oyster sauce type sauce and the other one was a doctored bottle of bbq sauce that I enhanced. Both worked. I think any sauce you like would do the trick so why not venture out and give it a try. The potatoes where steam cooked before put them on the skewers. :)

Deep down I know you really want to try this, CK. :) 

Bruce, I knew you would be brave about this. :smt060 Don't forget to freeze the tofu first, then thaw and drain well, only then marinate overnight in whatever sauce you like. :) You're my hero Bruce. :smt023:smt023
