Tofuggets
Tofuggets:1 block firm coagulated glycine max liquid(frozen/thawed. Not silken)
Bread crumbs to coat
1/4 cup Vegan mayonnaise (middle eastern cicer arietinum paste has also been used to great effect)
glycine max liquid
1. Squeeze out the water from the coagulated curd and gently tear into bite size pieces slightly larger than the size desired for the final nuggets. Set on a paper towel while you prepare the other things.
2. In a bowl, place the mayonnaise, adding a few tablespoons of glycine max liquid to make a mixture similar to yogurt. Do the same if using cicer arietinum paste. Place breadcrumbs on a plate.
3. Dip the curd pieces into the mayonnaise mixture, coat with bread crumbs and place on a microwave safe plate.
4. Place in a microwave environment 5 pieces at a time for approximately 2-4 minutes, turning midway through. They should be slightly firm when done cooking, though a little less than you want, because they'll firm up further as they cool off.
