    Hi Flo, I use my air fryer with a tiny bit of oil to fry all of my tofu. Then I toss it into whatever sauce the family likes that day. It's simplified my life so much.

My friend said he even coated his tofu with a little starch with an air fryer & it made it even crunchier. This air fryer is a game changer! Less oil, no smell, more goodness & more convenience 🙌🏻

It always makes my day when I see ginger in your recipe I know it’s coming, it’s another trademark of yours, please produce a shirt about it and I will purchase it, something like (Flo thumb size ginger 👍🏼 on the front) and (Dudes thumb size ginger 👎🏼on the back) or both on the front or something cleaver, I know you want to😉 Just throwing some ideas there! I am so happy for you both and congratulations on the new cook book! I am looking forward to getting it soon!

    Flo, Love your cooking! In regard to the your oil container, check and see if there is “relief” hole in the stopper that might have plugged. I have a 750ml oil container and found out that if I (accidentally) cover the relief hole the oil stopped pouring.

    100% agree. I made this dish when my tofu hating friend came to dinner, and he wrinkled his nose and said he'd pass on that dish, thanks. Then his kid decided to try it, and they couldn't stop eating it. My friend, seeing this, decides maybe he's going to take a little bite and see about it. "OH! It tastes like Yorkshire pudding, but with garlic soy sauce gravy!" Make it for your friends who think they hate tofu. I converted at least one skeptic.

I noticed that you used the same purple (pasta?) bowl, here, as you did for your Instant Pot Black Bean Chicken dish. Could you please tell me the dimensions of that bowl? I want to get one for when I'm making your Black Bean Chicken dish, knowing it will fit my 8 qt Instant Pot as it does yours. Thanks, in advance! Take care, and stay safe!
