This recipe was especially made for the ones out there who say they don’t like tofu. Tofu on it’s on is a bit bland but has an enormous capability to absorb the taste of anything you mix with it. On this recipe we freeze the tofu so we can 1) change the texture of it and 2) by defrosting it somehow enhances its absorption capacity. Don’t ask me why it simply does.
