Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Appliances and Silken Tofu with Dressing


 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date 'Appliances' theme!  I did an electric kettle, I liked the sleek lines on this one.  It was $275 when I googled months back not inexpensive.

For the Dinner date, I made a silken (soft) tofu with dressing.


1 package of silken tofu, sliced.
Dressing:
2 1/2 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs Chinese black vinegar (can substitute rice vinegar)
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbs chili oil crisp (or use your favourite hot sauce)
1 tsp sugar
3 cloves of garlic minced
2 green onions diced

In a bowl, slice the tofu into 1/2 inch sections.
Top with dressing. I like to microwave it for 2 1/2 minutes until it is deliciously warm.

This is my inspiration link from Instagram.

That's a lovely pitcher (or jug). Never tell the difference between these two words.

Oh, thanks so much for the Thursday post! Awesome recipe. Great Gadget art too!

Christine said...

It can be either, Erika. I have been having it as a main course. I just read that tofu is one of the few plant based foods considered a complete protein.

Is an electric kettle for heating up liquids or can you make things with it? I have stove top whistle kettle but it's put in a closet somewhere. If I want hot water, I zap it in the microwave. :) Good artwork!

Tofu is one of those things that just doesn't call my name. lol It's suppose to be really high in protein, though.

Excellent on the tofu. I love me some bean curd! Delightful.

I was just looking at that kettle, didn't buy it though. Got a different, more affordable one. I like the metal look in your drawing.
