Do you think you could form this into a sausage shape and then slice it??
I haven’t tried… I think it would crumble apart.

Where can I get liquid smoke from as I haven’t yet seen it in the supermarket or anything Thanks for your answer Anja. Looking forward to trying this recipe .
Ebay, amazon or specialty online stores.
Greetibgs from the UK. It’s brilliant to have you back….. BIG thanks for the recipes, I am going to try this recipe out. I am not a huge fan of tofu but I’m hoping with all the additions it will transform. it.

Fantastic! Glad you like it as much as I do 🙂
Do you need any oil in the pan or is the liquid from the tofu sufficient to cook it all in?
I don’t use oil in my cooking.
