I liked it but I feel like it needs something crunchy. I might add some chili crisp or some fried shallots ontop next time.

Didn't love. Definitely had to take her suggestions of adding in lemon juice and nutritional yeast to add in some flavor. Also, the tofu sauce was still a bit grainy.

This was okay, but will not be a repeat for us. It was creamy, but it was too bland. As it cooled it got quite stodgy. I’m not sure we will eat our way through the leftovers. I used the black vinegar and was glad I didn’t use soy sauce as it was on the verge on being too salty.

This is was nice and easy. The tofu sauce turned out too garlicky. Next time I will leaved out the raw garlic. The fried leek has enough of it already.

Excellent recipe. The tofu cream will become a standalone favorite. Only recommendation is to stick to the 1/2 cup of water. I added about 3/4 and it was a smidge looser than I wanted.
