Back on the nut butters but I love a yummy satay sauce. My two favourite sauces / marinades for firm tofu is satay and harissa marinade. This is easy yummy satay sauce with just a few ingredients again. If you haven’t tried tofu, give it a try, although I keep it to a minimum as soy has phyto-oestrogens, which basicly act like oestrogen in the body, which can lead to hormone imbalance for some, if consumed in excess. You can also try some fermented versions, which are better like tempeh, miso and natto. Firm tofu with a marinade, I like to have sometimes just to snack on in the fridge, giving a plant based protein boost or yummy in salads, with some greens like this one. Enjoy xx
