Tarragon Tofu

by Gloria Kobrin

My Mother in Law never imagined that my recipe for Tarragon Tofu would be derived from her recipe for Tarragon Chicken. Pressed and drained extra firm tofu is able to absorb any combination of flavors you add to it. When it’s coated in mustard and tarragon and baked in white […]
