Directions
Tofu Piccata, This recipe came from: It is absolutely divine. It even has non-tofu people singing its praises. It is a great “starter vegetarian” type recipe. I like to serve it with some plain rice., I pithed and peeled a large lemon, sliced it thin, and added the entire lemon to the sauce. Of course, it came out incredibly SOUR and I could not taste anything else. Did I make this correctly? Next time, I would likely increase the mushrooms and white wine and just use the lemon juice to make more of a sauce. I ended up just making a sour topping. Lightly fried then baked tofu steaks came out perfectly though. Next time, I would definitely definitely tweak this recipe to use less lemon and more liquid., Enjoyed this recipe. Especially appreciated that it was very different from the 10, 000 variations of tofu with vegetables and a soy based sauce. I made the following mods
Used lemon juice rather than sliced lemons. This led to more sauce.
Replaced flour with ground almonds to make it lower carb. This worked great – it still had a nice crispy exterior.
Fried the tofu on a griddle so I could do it in one batch.
