  • Replacing Eggs
    • Egg Replacements @ peta.org (06/20)
      • Tofu is great for egg substitutions in recipes that call for a lot of eggs,
        such as quiches or custards. To replace one egg in a recipe, puree 1/4 cup of soft
        tofu. Although tofu doesn't fluff up like eggs, it does create a texture that's perfect
        for "eggy" dishes.
      • Firm tofu is a great substitute for eggs in eggless egg salad and breakfast scrambles.

    • Egg Substitutes @ healthline.com (06/20)
      • Silken tofu is a geat substitute for eggs, but may lead to a heavier, denser
        product. To replace one egg, use 1/4 cup pureed tofu.
      • Silken tofu is relatively flavorless, but it can make baked goods dense and
        heavy, so it's best in brownies, cookies, quick breads and cakes.

    • Ingredients
      • 1 1⁄2 cups boiling water
      • 1 1⁄2 teaspoons dried dill
      • 1⁄2 teaspoon dried rosemary
      • 1⁄2 teaspoon dried thyme
      • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt (scant)
      • 1⁄2 teaspoon dried marjoram
      • 1⁄2 teaspoon dried sage
      • 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
      • 1-4 garlic clove, thinly sliced
      • 3 tablespoons olive oil
      • 1 lb firm tofu
    • Instructions
      • Preheat oven to 350 deg F
      • In a large bowl, prepare the marinade by whisking together all the
        ingredients except the tofu. Set aside.
      • Slice the tofu into desired shapes, about 1/4 inch thick (a pound of
        tofu will give you about 10 slices).
      • Lay each slice on a cookie sheet or a lasagna pan, cover with marinade,
        and let sit in the refrigerate for at least an hour -- the longer, the better
      • Turn the slices over a few times as they marinate.
      • Bake for 1 hour, turning slices over after 30 minutes
      • To serve, fry cutlets on a nonstick frying pan until both sides are browned
    • Notes
      • The slices are baked while sitting IN the marinade, and they soak up all the flavor
