What can I do with tempeh?

Question

I ordered some frozen tempeh from a wholefoods website but haven't a clue what it is. It's in a frozen block about the size of my hand.

Can anyone tell me what it tastes like and a good way to cook it? Thanks

Answer 1

Tempeh has a nutty, chewy texture. It's an Indonesian product made from fermented soybeans and normally comes in cakes.

First, take it from the freezer and put in the fridge.

Now, you can cut the tempeh in chops or strips, marinate and grill or pan-fry. You can cut it in chunks and make kabobs. You can pan-fry chunks and eat them plain or toss into a salad. You can crumble it into a chili or a stew. You will want to have a sauce or a rub to flavor your tempeh.

Check out www.veggiediner.com its a vegan/veggie restaurant in Chicago that have awesome food and on the site, they have a few recipes and the sloppy joes actually uses tempeh I believe.

Slice it and you can fried it. Eat it like fried chicken with sauces. You can also put tempeh in any suitable Asian dish.

Answer 5

Kinda like Tofu - I usually marinate it in a little soy sauce garlic & lemon juice, then grill it with some mushrooms & serve with Hokkien Noodles . You can fry it and add to salads, add to soup, noodle dishes - anything.
