Socializing must be difficult for you, then. It’s a very basic description of tact in a specific scenario. “tact” is how you approach something. You can honestly want to tell someone to stop eating meat with a joke relying on grossness, and get different results based on how you go about doing so.

Basic socializing skills. Standup commedians are basically professional social tacticians. The fact I have to explain this, and am getting downvoted for it is pathetic.

I think with this statement you’ve uncovered the heart of the issue. Your interest in other people’s diets is unwelcome and those who do not welcome your interest are simply returning the favour.

If one pokes one’s nose in other people’s business, one should expect negative responses.

I add flavorful ingredients to other flavorful ingredients all the time. I just want each one to contribute a flavor of its own. Tofu, rice, and pasta all fail to contribute.

humorlessrepost@lemmy.world on 19 Jun 2024 18:20 collapse

Temporarily to help things mix, but only with the intent of cooking it down. Soup is what happens when you take perfectly good food, then water it down.

nomous@lemmy.world on 19 Jun 2024 18:20 collapse

They’re really just good vehicles for other flavors, like bread or potatos.

humorlessrepost@lemmy.world on 19 Jun 2024 18:33 collapse

They contribute texture, sure. And with enough maillard reaction, potato and bread can pull their own weight. I just hate the idea of filler ingredients. I had to make my food stretch when I was younger, and now I don’t have to (for now), so I’d much rather just have more of the genuinely tasty parts and leave out the bland bulk. Every rice dish is better to me without the rice, for instance. Same flavor, but more of it per bite.

I was also raised to believe that foods like rice were “filler”. Refined grains might not have much to contribute, but it’s been a lifechanging experience to have learned better that whole grains are nutritional and culinary cornerstones.

zarkanian@sh.itjust.works on 19 Jun 2024 20:50 collapse

That’s like complaining that flour has no flavor. Or rice has no flavor. That’s the point. It’s a blank canvas for the chef to cook on.

humorlessrepost@lemmy.world on 19 Jun 2024 20:51 collapse

I prefer not to eat the canvas. And I absolutely extend my criticism to rice.

EatATaco@lemm.ee on 19 Jun 2024 16:29 collapse

What I like about tofu is precisely that it doesn’t have much of a flavor, and simply takes on whatever you are cooking it in or with. The only time “plain” tofu really does it for me on its own is when it’s nice and salty and fried really crispy…but even then it’s better with some kind of sauce.

But on its own, definitely not delicious. Just bland.

MindTraveller@lemmy.ca on 19 Jun 2024 21:55 collapse

Well obviously you gotta season it. Nobody says “I love potato crisps” and is talking about unseasoned chips.

Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world on 19 Jun 2024 09:32 next collapse

It’s not gross. I just never had tofu that had any worthwhile taste. Probably have not had good tofu hut nonetheless.

Doxin@pawb.social on 19 Jun 2024 10:13 next collapse

I mean tofu by itself tastes pretty much of nothing. You need to like marinade and spice it before it tastes good.

Personally I also like making sure one side is fried until very crispy.

efstajas@lemmy.world on 19 Jun 2024 21:01 collapse

Really pressing all the water out first is key to get it crispy. Soaking it briefly in eggwash (or oil if vegan) and breading it with breadcrumbs or even just flour before frying it hard makes it soooooo good. Can add spices to the eggwash too.

Doxin@pawb.social on 20 Jun 2024 06:44 collapse

Oh interesting, I’ve never bothered to do much about the water. Should try that next time.

Ah I never had tofu myself but paneer is literally my most favourite ingredient. Its pretty massive among vegetarians in India but I can see why some would hate it. I am guessing tofu would be very similar in texture.

flying_sheep@lemmy.ml on 19 Jun 2024 20:59 next collapse

There’s various textures tofu comes in

  • coarse tofu is like a more spongy, less fatty feta. Not great, but it exists to be pressed, marinated, and fried, which can make it amazing
  • silk tofu is very tender, texture is something between jello and pudding. Great as cubes in soup.
  • you can but deep fried tofu, which is great

There’s probably more

From experience, it seems to be like detecting the smell of ants. A genetic trait not present on everyone. To me, tofu smells rank, but sliced thin and after I add a splash of full salt soy sauce, it turns out delicious. My dad says the same happens to him.

And trust me, I have tried lots of types of tofu in my life, it is a staple in my diet.

Tofu alone is not anything great, but it’s also not gross. It’s pretty flat and nutural in flavor which is what makes it great because you can make it taste like most anything. It’s like saying flour is gross. Like I don’t want a spoon full of flour, but I’ll make you a damn fine pancake.

BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee on 20 Jun 2024 09:52 collapse

My sister always said tofu tastes like nothing and it just tastes like whatever you season it with. Ah yes, unlike the chicken that is so flavorful that you brine it overnight and then rub it with a ton of salt and spices just to not make it bland.

My very omnivorous kids love tofu, especially with pork - kimchi jigae, ma po tofu, in ramen with pork belly. The youngest loves the soft tofu in miso soup too. We always just treated it like food.

@RogueBanana@lemmy.zip it’s nothing like paneer though - whole foods makes creamed spinach with coconut milk and tofu instead of cream and paneer and the tofu is vile as a dub for paneer. In about the way you would expect, if you’ve had soy milk - it’s basically soy milk paneer. Very different texture.
