I took a package of tofu and froze it, then let it thaw, froze it again and let it that. This makes it extremely flakey. I then soaked it in brine a bit and cut into filet shaped wedges. Using a slurry of corn starch and water I glued nori sheets to it and then brushed it all over. I added sea salt and paprka as well.
I air fried these for a while until they became brown and flaky. I ate it with horseradish sauce not pictured.
Next time I’d use bigger nori sheets because they shrunk a but and maybe marinate the tofu differently, maybe in some konbu dashi
It looks great but the name “tofish” just doesn’t sit right with me…
Why not? I didn’t even come up with it there are a thousand recipe results for this same thing if you google it
That wasn’t a slight at you. I love the dish but to me it’s an unappetising name.
I read the title too quickly and read “toilet fish”
