Cuban Tofu Salad Preparation
1. Cut tofu into 1 squares, 1/2 thick. Coat with nutritional yeast. Fry in oil over medium heat until golden brown and slightly chewy. Drain on paper towels. 2. Cut potatoes and sweet potatoes into 1 cubes. Boil until tender. Drain. 3. Mix together tofu, potatoes, apple, 3 of the eggs, peas, and onion. Add enough mayonnaise to make it creamy or to taste. Add dill weed, fresh if possible. Add enough vinegar, prepared mustard, or Durkee’s Sauce (basically a mustard-vinegar sauce) to give it a tang. 4. Garnish with additional egg and asparagus spears. Sprinkle with paprika for beauty. Variations and substitutions: 1. Broil the tofu to reduce fat. It won’t have a nicy chewy texture, though. 2. Substitute chicken for the tofu (as in the original recipe). 3. Substitute plain, non-fat yogurt for some of the mayonnaise to reduce fat content.
