You might try adding Poultry Seasoning to the tofu to help it taste like chicken. Also the Better Than Bouillon product "No Chicken Base" really adds a lovely chicken flavor to tofu and other plant-based chicken replacements and it's vegan! Thank you for the great recipe idea! Crispy tofu chicken sounds awesome!

Im going to try this. I saw someone else do it as well.

I love how you tore the tofu in half! My partner is an amazing tofu cook and has been tearing it into chunks rather than cutting it into cubes for years. The extra surface area gives it a nice almost crunchy texture on the outside, and I think it absorbs flavours better too!

The recipe seems absolutely awesome. And honestly, ever since I tried tearing tofu for the first time there is no ging back for me - the texture is just SO MUCH better than when sliced/cubed! Also, you'd probably have to play with salt-infusion of the tofu prior to drying but it would really take this sandwich to an extreme in terms of time commitment :D . Anyways, have a wonderful end of the week!

I really appreciate when you make recipes like this that I can make gluten free easily enough. This just helps me decide what dinner will be tomorrow.

Cornbread Cafe Eugene, Oregon been doing this for years and was on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives making their Eugenewich with a Southern fried tofu patty, vegan cheddar, haystack onions, lettuce, tomato, and smoky sauce on a grilled brioche bun.

Honestly, my favorite cooking channel on youtube for the past two years / whenever I discovered y’all. Science > Comedy when it comes to cooking. A great base for future generations of businesses and cooks this channel is. Having/ Making it be known to the community that it isn’t that much harder to please the vegan community. It all just seems like a fun science experiment for a kitchen. You make me miss going to chemistry labs. Thank you so much. Please keep up the good work.

Nice! It looks like it takes a while but very easy to make with simple ingredients. Love it!

CKD prevents me from using salt but there are great sodim/potassium free seasonings that add that zing that was missing. Soaking the tofu in apple cider vinegar for a couple hours before dehydrating gives it a great flavor and texture as well.

I squeeze out all the liquid from the tofu between two plates, then put the marinade in a container, put the tofu in and squeeze again, kinda like soaking up liquid with a sponge. This gets the flavour right into the centre of the tofu.

Love ya! Love the book! I never miss an episode. Watching this and thinking.... WHAT IF, you marinate the tofu in non chicken bouillon and make a Nashville Hot? Same steps as you did but just add in?

Always glad to see a chickun sandwich recipe! I always have problems with conventional patties, getting them both cooked through and still juicy!

However, I would think that would be tricky to do for more than 2 pieces by the tearing method that he demonstrates in his video, as opposed to cutting the tofu with a knife. Tearing it once gets messy, and trying to tear that already torn piece a second seems like it would be difficult.

@@michaelworsham2724 That is very true. I used a knife to cut mine, and they turned out lovely and crispy!

Honestly I find an easy method is to press a block, then marinate in 2x concentrated chicken style broth (twice the powder), after a few hours, tear, bread, and fry.

Looks great! I often fry up twice frozen tofu and slicing it changes the "look." Tearing it apart is a great idea.

I’m going to attempt this tomorrow! I’m laying in bed and now I’m starving! Those look delicious 🤤

have you ever tried microwaving tofu, also what about using a tenderizer to allow more flavor into it? I sometimes do that to evaporate the water as well as making it firmer and more dried out.

Those look amazing!😍

Just sent my husband to buy tofu😁 I always preferred the texture of baked tofu and this a great way to combine it. I think brushing some oil when it goes in the oven, might infuse more the spices.

Thanks. I like your videos. Do you have another alternative to bacon bits. I am alergic to red dye.

The best way I have found is to freeze and thaw your tofu, then press it, then marinade it in a "chicken" broth. It turns the tofu into a juicy flavorful meat.

I love Tofu, I’ll have to try this.

Idea 💡 Could you boil the tofu in some not-chicken bouillon for a little while before repeating the rest of the steps? That's what I used to do with the quorn cutlets years ago and it helped give it a more chicken-y flavor.

Renee soaking in vegan chicken bouillon is definitely advised so it gets rid of the bland tofu taste. Have you seen Mary's Test Kitchen's best fried chicken video? She soaks the tofu in bouillon (better than bouillon no chicken is the best), which in my experience comes out the tastiest. She also double freezes medium-firm tofu (if you can find it, this one will have the best texture). Hmart is the only store near me that carries it. I have tested soft, medium-firm, firm and extra firm and the medium-firm resulted in the most realistic texture after double freezing. Or, to make it much quicker, I use Gardein Scallopini and that texture came out even better. The only downside is, it's more expensive.

@@ginasuber2141 i check it periodically and it depends on how dehydrated you want it. 200 for an hour in a convection oven, check periodically, increase or decrease as needed. the goal is to firm up the texture a bit more and probably assist the texture a bit with the browning. Stash doenst like pressing tofu, but you can press it too. I put tofu in my press overnight at max pressure regularly. I have even pressed, frozen while in the press, and thawed in the press repeating the cycle 2x. I have gotten a tofu block to about 1/3 to 1/2" thick. :)
