    Thanks. It’s extra firm tofu, water pressed out, then I froze it to get more water out. Tore the tofu into bite sized bits into a bowl, added some soy sauce, maple syrup and rice vinegar to it and let it marinade for a bit. I was out of regular flour so I used chickpea flour for the breading… In one bowl I added corn starch and chickpea flour and in another a bowl the same but with some water and mix it. Coat the bites in the dry mix, into the wet mix, back to the dry then shallow fry the bites. Cool then coat with your preferred sauce. Edit worth mentioning that while it was thawing I squeezed water from it. I was surprised at how much was in it.

    The recipe I got for this is from a book called “Canadian Heritage Breads.” I changed it a bit, it called for using melted butter as the oil, I used olive oil.

    1 tsp Sugar ½ tbsp yeast ½ cup of warm water 2 tbsp sugar 3 tbsp olive oil (I added maybe an extra teaspoon) 2 tsp salt 2 cups milk, scalded 2 cups flour, first amount 4 cups flour, second amount (It called for 4 cups but I just used 3 it was the right amount)

    Scald the milk and let it cool. Add the first amount of sugar into a bowl with water and sugar. Rest for about 10 minutes. Add the remaining sugar, oil, salt and the first amount of flour and mix until smooth. Work in the remaining flour, and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Proof in a greased bowl for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch the dough down. Divide into 2 equal loaves and place into greased loaf pans. Let rise until doubled in size, about 35–45 minutes. Preheat oven to 400*F. Bake for about 30 minutes until loaves are golden brown.

    Sorry for the delay

    The bread is called a Pagnotta, I borrowed the book “Jamie Cooks Italy” from my local library. 3 ¾ cup fine semolina flour 3 ¾ cups strong white flour ¼ oz dried yeast ¾ oz salt 3 cups luke warm water

    Add flours and yeast into mixing bowl. Add water and yeast to mixture. Beat slowly for 10 minutes. Let to proof for at least 16 hours.

    Next day remove from mixing bowl onto a well floured surface. Dust a metal bowl with flour. Shape the dough into a round shape and place into the floured bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and let it proof in a warm room for 3 hours, or double in size.

    Preheat the oven to 475*F with a dutch oven inside. Dust parchment paper with semolina flour. Place the dough on to the parchment paper, and then generously sprinkle the dough with semolina flour. Slash the dough to expand while it cooks. Remove the Dutch oven from the oven and carefully place dough inside. Cover and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 25–30 minutes, or until the bread is golden, risen and the base sounds hallow when tapped.

    Cool before slicing.
