hey good morning @Winslow ! tofu is delicious! yes! i think liking it is more a mindset than anything else. let me tell you about my “open minded” father!!!. I especially love silken tofu which tends to be very difficult to find except in asian supermarkets but an ultra pasteurized version made by mori-nu (spelling?) (and this is not an endorsement) is sometimes available in “western” (may i call them occidental?) supermarkets.
anyway, as the name implies, it is like silk. very fragile so you have to be careful. goes great with a little fresh grated ginger on top, or finely chopped scallions, or slivered shiso leaves and a little soy sauce or tsuyu. this is all based on my personal japanese leaning but i bet there are many more ways to prepare it.
when cooked it gets harder i believe but then you could also get “soft“ tofu which is a bit firmer than the silken or get firm even - great for cooking. tofu is great! people should give it a try & be creative!!!
anyway, tofu does not actually present the perceivable unwanted effects some claim it does unless you have it for every meal every day for years. (or so i’ve read). one can probably find hazards in any food over eaten. (but consult with your doctor or dietician if concerned) omg all these disclaimers!!! that, i’m afraid is what an extraterrestrial has to do when trying to communicate unless of course itt’s arrived on the planet as a part of an invasion - which i have not. (that is, i come in peace ((and tofu)) ). anyway thanks Winslow for the mention since it is helping me out of a deep difficult time the past several days. hoping you’re doing well (and everyone too) 👽👽👽🌞🌞🌞

my wife surprised me with breakfast for dinner. 2 eggs over easy, 3 sausage patties, and the best part was the hashbrowns with onions/ all of them cut small and every potatoes was almost exactly the same size as well as the onions same size. the hashbrowns were cooked to a perfect golden brown, nice brown crisp potatos on the outside with a nice soft potato inside and the onions were a golden brown as well. she can really do a good job when she trys.
