meat
We don’t need to serve our guests some unidentifiable meat mix. Smoked tofu has the perfect consistency to be used in a potato salad. Get yourself a block of smoked tofu, cut it up into thin slices, then cube it. There is no need to cook the tofu, you can use it as is or fry it in a pan if you like to just like you used to fry cubes of bacon.
