You know that I only use ingredients that are accessible everywhere for my recipes in principle, to make vegan cooking truly accessible to everyone. So now you're going to tell me that you don't necessarily know tempeh or that it's not available near you... and it's true that it's not yet very common everywhere as a food item!
But we are starting to see more and more of it in cities, in organic shops, on restaurant menus, etc... so I wanted to give you an idea of how to cook it.
So there you have it, this recipe is a bit of advice on how to discover tempeh, it's one way among others to prepare it :)
Of course, if you want to try this sauce without tempeh, it works great with firm tofu as well! But I really love the unique texture of tempeh and I wanted to introduce you to it if you haven't already ;)
Starting by boiling it allows you to remove any bitterness that some tempeh may have. On the other hand, if you choose a pre-marinated or ready-to-eat tempeh, you can omit this step!
