My ex was big into tofu and whenever she made it I wasn't wowed by it. I just got tofu from my favorite Chinese place...SO GOOD. When it's prepared well it's honestly better than meat. (hexbear.net)

if you like spicy food this mapo tofu recipe someone posted a month ago is pretty tasty and easy: https://hexbear.net/post/3458216

the hardest part is acquiring the Doubanjiang (also sold as broad bean sauce or paste in the west), I hard to narrow it down to like 5 jars out of a hundred sauces in my local asian grocery store, and then scrutinize the labels on each to make sure I was getting the right one

miso can be skipped, tbh I thought it was a bit too salty when included so I skipped it the second time I made it and it was still pretty good

My strat with my local asain grocer is just to show them the woks of life or Wikipedia page for an ingredient and say "sorry, I am not good at finding or pronouncing things. Do you stock this?"

I'm fortunate my area has a sizable Chinese and Vietnamese diaspora, cause I didn't know that stuff was hard to come by.
