Fried Tempeh
This recipe for fried tempeh comes from the former head of fermentationat the restaurant noma. It is a fantastically simple, seemingly obvious way ofpreparing a vegan staple that otherwise for me can sometimes seem too bland.For some reason, frying it in a bit of oil makes all the difference and makesme excited to use it in so many foods from sandwiches to tacos and salads. Thisis one of the fastest, easiest things to cook.
