@givenup@xuya@Twoinchdestroya Tofu takes on flavor. Miso so is good and mandolin thin sliced tofu fried in butter takes on bacon-esque flavor. It's good for what it is. @JustJohnny I'm no jew and not very fond of them. I'm just willing to eat foods prepared for me out of respect for hosts, and I have some vegetarian friends.
If you take firm tofu slice it up thin and pan fry it in canola oil then it tastes good
does not require butter which contains animal fat
Does not taste like bacon to me
Also just frozen non-GMO soy beans with shells removed called edamame beans with the right spices added cooked in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl tastes good
@shortstories@xuya@givenup@JustJohnny@Twoinchdestroya I don't like to use canola oil for much when I can help it; butter gives it something more substantial and salty. Edamame is easy on the stomach which is nice, but I generally don't like eating soy of any type because I get enough xenoestrogens living in this world as it is. Soy sauce is my only regular form.
What’s the Difference Between Canola and Rapeseed Oils? In the 1970s canola was created through traditional plant cross-breeding by removing two things found in the rapeseed plant: glucosinolates and erucic acid. Erucic acid was removed because it was believed to be inedible or toxic in high doses.
I believe that Canola oil provides more ALA omega 3 per volume or mass than olive oil which does not even make the list but I could be wrong about that
The grainfed beef sample contained 30mg of alpha-Linolenic acid (the only significant omega 3 oil found in beef) per 100g pattie sample. The equivalent grassfed sample contained triple the amount – 90mg.
“There’s no contesting that the omega 3 in grassfed beef is higher. But the key point is, a woman’s requirement for alpha-Linolenic acid is 1600mg per day, while a man needs 1800mg,” he said.
