The I Hate Tofu Cookbook

From the executive editor at America’s Test Kitchen, thirty-five healthy, appetizing recipes that will turn you into a tofu lover.

People hate tofu. And it's hard to argue with tofu hatred, at least at first glance. It's ugly, it's spongy, and it doesn't really look like food—you might ask, "What's the point?"

The point is that it's a clean, healthful, powerful, plant-based protein that provides all kinds of nutrients without a lot of calories or carbohydrates and pretty much no cholesterol. In other words, it's kind of a perfect food. And The I Hate Tofu Cookbook proves this. With thirty-five delicious and satisfying recipes—from Sweet-and-Spicy Tofu Nuggets and Tofu Caesar Salad to Tofu Sloppy Joes, Grilled Tofu Kebabs, and Chocolate Pudding Pops—you will come to love it. We promise.
