I’m sorry but tofu is not cheese nor does it taste anything like it, vegan cookbooks need to be better. Stop massacring time honored dishes with uncreative replacement ingredients (hexbear.net)

You can’t just replace paneer with tofu and call a dish palak paneer you twat. Like replacing black beans with lentils and calling it black bean soup IT’S NOT THE SAME AND DOESN’T TASTE THE SAME.

I swear half the reason people hate veganism is the fucking half assed garbage cooking content put out by vegan incluencers.

‘Hi today I’m going to make a yummy vegan grilled cheese sandwich but instead of cheese I’m GOING TO USE FUCKING ELMER’S GLUE’ And This doesn’t just go for cheese

If you brine up and crumble tofu you've got a very decent feta substitute

You have piqued my curiosity. Tell me more. I have weird sensory issues with most uses of tofu, but I love feta.

(Yes, I am aware that doesn't make any damn sense. Sensory issues rarely do!)

Not the op but everyone raves about this tofu feta whenever I make it: https://erinireland.ca/vegan-recipes/the-best-tofu-feta-ever-hands-down/

Bonus: if you have access to powdered lactic acid (e.g. Druids Grove), use 1/4 tsp of that instead of each tablespoon of lemon juice
