Bryanna-

I tried your buffalo wing recipe twice this week!

The first time, I made it as directed. They were very tasty, but a little soft and jiggly... so the second time I made them with frozen tofu and they were perfect! I would definitely recommend that others make them this way.

I used the cheese sauce that came with it, but found that I needed to add a couple teaspoons of mustard powder, with a little agave nectar... went great with hot sauce!!!

Thanks for the recipe!

What kind of tofu did you use the first time? Firm regular tofu should never be "soft and jiggly". Did you use firm SILKEN tofu, maybe? That is a completely different thing. Also, tofu brands vary. If firm tofu is too soft in your area, try using extra-firm (NOT silken) or pressed tofu. I'm glad you liked it with the frozen, but frozen tofu has too chewy a texture for this recipe, in my opinion. The texture of a really firm or extra-firm tofu is better for this recipe, in my opinion-- more like chicken breast.

I used extra firm nasoya tofu... definitely not silken. I learned that mistake a while ago ;)

oh i meant to say that my boyfriend really prefers his tofu tougher, so that is probably the difference

i also made your fat free applesauce scones (i had to use raisins though) and I LOVE THEM! :)
