ckreef Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 This was my "Chopped" challenge on Guru. The 4 must use ingredients were Tofu, Apples, Corn and Sriracha sauce. A non traditional Wellington made with Tofu and served with Bourbon Apples. The different ingredients. Through a strange set of circumstances the tofu got marinated in the refrigerator for 32 hours. Didn't seem to hurt it. CI seared the outside at 450*. Allowed to cool. A layer of Prosciutto and corn paste. Rolled it up in saran wrap then in the freezer for a few minutes. While in the freezer I started on the Bourbon Apples. Roll it up in puff pastry then grill at 400* until golden brown. Dinner is served - I guess. The Bourbon Apples were a big hit and I'll come up with a recipe for that soon. The Wellington was edible. If tofu was the only protein left on earth I could make it work.

MacKenzie Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 CK, I sure like the looks of that dinner, I'd call it a winner but I'm not so sure you think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Gritting my teeth on this one. I was quasi on board with the Wellington idea for the tofu, but you lost me with the corn paste filling. Loved the bourbon apples though.

The corn paste instead of the traditional mushroom paste and it used one of my required ingredients. The corn paste was one of the better parts and I can see stuffing other meats with a corn paste.

Understood the basket; but it was the combo of the corn and tofu inside puff pastry that had me gritting my teeth, texture more than flavor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
