I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.","avatar":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dc444b11959eca5e5364cfc2e4358efb?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twitter":null,"facebook":null,"instagram":null,"linkedin":null,"sites":[{"site":"bayareabites","roles":["contributor"]}],"headData":{"title":"Denise Santoro Lincoln | KQED","description":null,"ogImgSrc":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dc444b11959eca5e5364cfc2e4358efb?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twImgSrc":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dc444b11959eca5e5364cfc2e4358efb?s=600&d=blank&r=g"},"isLoading":false,"link":"/author/denise-lincoln"},"shuna-lydon":{"type":"authors","id":"5021","meta":{"index":"authors_1591205172","id":"5021","found":true},"name":"Shuna Fish Lydon","firstName":"Shuna","lastName":"Lydon","slug":"shuna-lydon","email":"shunafish.l@gmail.com","display_author_email":false,"staff_mastheads":[],"title":null,"bio":"Shuna fish Lydon was whisked and baked in San Francisco but served and eaten in New York City.

(Really, people? Hemp milk?

Is almond milk really that much better for you? What are the problems with it that no one is talking about? Here's the DL on almond milk:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Health Benefits\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's full of nutrients and good stuff.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Almonds are a rich source of protein, Vitamin E, magnesium, potassium, selenium, manganese, and iron. This means strong bones and muscles, antioxidant protection, healthy skin, high energy levels, good metabolism, and other health benefits. Also, commercially made almond milk is often fortified with calcium (A good tip: give the carton a good shake before drinking, because calcium can settle at the bottom). Almond milk contains no cholesterol, and has actually been shown to lower levels of LDL cholesterol (due to good monounsaturated fats in almonds) as well as protect against heart disease (almond skins contain flavonoids which help to protect the heart).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's low in calories.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Based on a recent comparison published in \u003ca href=\"http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703791904576075790255426176.html?utm_source=streamsend&utm_medium=email&utm_content=13238541&utm_campaign=Food%20News%20Thursday,%20January%2013#articleTabs%3Darticle\">The Wall Street Journal\u003c/a>, a one-cup serving of almond milk comes in at 60 calories, compared to coconut milk (80 calories), soy milk (90 calories), rice milk (120 calories), and 2% cow's milk (130 calories).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's lactose free.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> An estimated 30 to 50 million Americans (about 25% of the United States population) are affected by \u003ca href=\"http://www.wrongdiagnosis.com/l/lactose_intolerance/stats.htm?ktrack=kcplink\">lactose intolerance\u003c/a>, meaning they have difficulty digesting the sugar found in cow's milk. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's antibiotic and growth hormone free.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> While many dairy farmers have made strides to ensure that their cows are \u003ca href=\"http://www.sustainabletable.org/issues/hormones/\">rBGH-free\u003c/a>, the practice of injecting dairy cows with growth hormones and antibiotics has not been completely eradicated. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's an alternate alternative.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Soy milk got some bad PR not long ago thanks to Jeremy Piven's \u003ca href=\"http://www.mensfitness.com/nutrition/339\">man boobs\u003c/a>. Unless you're consuming a gallon of soy milk a day though, studies have shown that soy-induced man boobs aren't a real concern. However, there is an ongoing debate on the effect of soy foods on women. Soy foods are rich in \u003ca href=\"http://envirocancer.cornell.edu/FactSheet/Diet/fs1.phyto.cfm\">isoflavones/phytoestrogens\u003c/a>, which can mimic the effects of estrogen. It is currently unclear whether soy foods affect breast cancer risk or recovery…reading the studies and articles on this topic can easily spin you around with all the seemingly contradictory findings. It appears that the conclusion most widely agreed upon is to consume soy in moderation, along with a healthy and balanced diet. Thanks, Captain Obvious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Concerns\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It can cause problems for those at risk for low thyroid function.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Almonds are a \u003ca href=\"http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=george&dbid=47\">goitrogenic food\u003c/a>, meaning, when consumed in large quantities, they can suppress the function of the thyroid gland by interfering with iodine uptake, causing an enlargement of the thyroid. While goitrogenic foods (such as soy, cabbage, kale, flax, broccoli, and almonds) can be harmful for those with thyroid problems, they are beneficial for people who have healthy thyroid function. So, if you have a thyroid problem, avoid almond milk. Otherwise, your almond milk mustache is good to go. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It has added sugar.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Flavored almond milk like Vanilla and Chocolate can have 15-22 grams of sugar per cup.

Now, in addition to your standard cow's milk choices (organic, low fat, fat-free, lactose–free), there is a slew of alternatives that aren't even dairy at all: soy milk, almond milk, rice milk, oat milk, coconut milk, even hemp milk. (Really, people? Hemp milk?

Is almond milk really that much better for you? What are the problems with it that no one is talking about? Here's the DL on almond milk:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Health Benefits\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's full of nutrients and good stuff.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Almonds are a rich source of protein, Vitamin E, magnesium, potassium, selenium, manganese, and iron. This means strong bones and muscles, antioxidant protection, healthy skin, high energy levels, good metabolism, and other health benefits. Also, commercially made almond milk is often fortified with calcium (A good tip: give the carton a good shake before drinking, because calcium can settle at the bottom). Almond milk contains no cholesterol, and has actually been shown to lower levels of LDL cholesterol (due to good monounsaturated fats in almonds) as well as protect against heart disease (almond skins contain flavonoids which help to protect the heart).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's low in calories.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Based on a recent comparison published in \u003ca href=\"http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703791904576075790255426176.html?utm_source=streamsend&utm_medium=email&utm_content=13238541&utm_campaign=Food%20News%20Thursday,%20January%2013#articleTabs%3Darticle\">The Wall Street Journal\u003c/a>, a one-cup serving of almond milk comes in at 60 calories, compared to coconut milk (80 calories), soy milk (90 calories), rice milk (120 calories), and 2% cow's milk (130 calories).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's lactose free.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> An estimated 30 to 50 million Americans (about 25% of the United States population) are affected by \u003ca href=\"http://www.wrongdiagnosis.com/l/lactose_intolerance/stats.htm?ktrack=kcplink\">lactose intolerance\u003c/a>, meaning they have difficulty digesting the sugar found in cow's milk. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's antibiotic and growth hormone free.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> While many dairy farmers have made strides to ensure that their cows are \u003ca href=\"http://www.sustainabletable.org/issues/hormones/\">rBGH-free\u003c/a>, the practice of injecting dairy cows with growth hormones and antibiotics has not been completely eradicated. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It's an alternate alternative.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Soy milk got some bad PR not long ago thanks to Jeremy Piven's \u003ca href=\"http://www.mensfitness.com/nutrition/339\">man boobs\u003c/a>. Unless you're consuming a gallon of soy milk a day though, studies have shown that soy-induced man boobs aren't a real concern. However, there is an ongoing debate on the effect of soy foods on women. Soy foods are rich in \u003ca href=\"http://envirocancer.cornell.edu/FactSheet/Diet/fs1.phyto.cfm\">isoflavones/phytoestrogens\u003c/a>, which can mimic the effects of estrogen. It is currently unclear whether soy foods affect breast cancer risk or recovery…reading the studies and articles on this topic can easily spin you around with all the seemingly contradictory findings. It appears that the conclusion most widely agreed upon is to consume soy in moderation, along with a healthy and balanced diet. Thanks, Captain Obvious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Concerns\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It can cause problems for those at risk for low thyroid function.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Almonds are a \u003ca href=\"http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=george&dbid=47\">goitrogenic food\u003c/a>, meaning, when consumed in large quantities, they can suppress the function of the thyroid gland by interfering with iodine uptake, causing an enlargement of the thyroid. While goitrogenic foods (such as soy, cabbage, kale, flax, broccoli, and almonds) can be harmful for those with thyroid problems, they are beneficial for people who have healthy thyroid function. So, if you have a thyroid problem, avoid almond milk. Otherwise, your almond milk mustache is good to go. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>•\t\u003cem>\u003cstrong>It has added sugar.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> Flavored almond milk like Vanilla and Chocolate can have 15-22 grams of sugar per cup.

A pastry chef herself, she requested that I weigh in on steamed puddings, their ratios, and what sort of recipe to start with when attempting them for the first time. Thinking I could answer her in a snap, I soon realized steamed puddings require some history and the ability to think differently about what we know to be \"pudding\" in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just about as old fashioned as \"plated desserts\" come, steamed puddings are completely out of fashion, even in England, their country of origin. Because they are not easy, or, for many, aren't worth the effort. In fact, even in The United Kingdom, steamed puddings are a chapter all on their own. At The French Laundry we served a chocolate steamed pudding mostly because we found the finicky method intriguing. And then there are the nifty molds. Antiquated and practical, fitted with tight clasps, elegant metal molds over a hundred years old can still be found for sale at tag sales or \u003ca href=\"http://travel2.nytimes.com/top/features/travel/destinations/unitedstates/california/sanfrancisco/shop_details.html?vid=1083747045586\">dusty, quirky cookshops.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/steampud-759335.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/steampud-755615.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Are the \u003ca href=\"http://lacuisineus.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=80_191\">actual steamed pudding molds\u003c/a> absolutely necessary?

I worked on it with Sara Ko (then Sara Cameron), my co-pastry chef. As fun as it was to create I will admit to the fact that the texture has to be one you're fond of. Steamed pudding may well be more about the process than the end result. This dessert is not for the person who thinks a cake should feel like cake and puddings disappear easily on the tongue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Americans speaking of \"pudding\" we have a family of sweet endings in mind. Custards: eggy, rich, soft. \"Baby food\" in the worst of circumstances, and creme brulee in the best. But the word pudding comes from England's English where by saying pudding they mean dessert. Or sweet things in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's important to note these differences so that our physical expectation of the steamed pudding changes. \u003ca href=\"http://eggbeater.typepad.com/shuna/2005/05/although_i_shou.html\">\u003cb>For all custards need steam\u003c/b>\u003c/a>, if their consistency is to be smooth and creamy. No one wants to eat an overcooked creme caramel (it feels like a rubber band) or pot de creme (it looses all that melt-in-your-mouth quality you tried so hard, and spent so much money, to achieve.) Even a pannacotta done wrong can make a horrible impression, and that one's not even baked or cooked!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the steamed pudding is sitting in a tightly bound mold on a rack inside of a large pot on top of your stove boiling, and not in the expansive womb of the oven, it's important to have a recipe very low in flour. This is not a cake, no, although the end consistency will not feel like what we know as custard either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Have you ever made \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/2005/11/persimmons-please.jsp\">\u003cb>persimmon pudding\u003c/b>\u003c/a>?

Gently, with a spatula, pour mixture into mold.\u003cbr>5. Have a stock pot ready with a rack in the bottom. Put mold on the rack; pour in water halfway up the side of the mold, being careful not to have water's edge too close to the mold's lid seam. Fit stock pot with tight fitting lid. Turn heat to low and cook, without removing lid, for at least 1 hour. You may need to peek to check on water level. If it becomes dangerously low be sure to add \"make-up\" water that is very hot or boiling. We cooked this recipe for 1 hour and 15 minutes. (Cooking time is never a definite number as time factors are based on equipment used.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When done, pull mold out and cool on rack for 10 minutes. Run knife around mold and invert.

Because puddings baked in molds to be turned-out are often pre-lined with caramel, the marmalade is a nice alternative, and much easier to handle! If you've put a generous dollop it may take a bit longer for the steamed pudding to cook and set, but in the plating it will make an integral garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're one of those poeple who love to learn about culinary history experientially, you will appreciate steamed puddings.

A pastry chef herself, she requested that I weigh in on steamed puddings, their ratios, and what sort of recipe to start with when attempting them for the first time. Thinking I could answer her in a snap, I soon realized steamed puddings require some history and the ability to think differently about what we know to be \"pudding\" in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just about as old fashioned as \"plated desserts\" come, steamed puddings are completely out of fashion, even in England, their country of origin. Because they are not easy, or, for many, aren't worth the effort. In fact, even in The United Kingdom, steamed puddings are a chapter all on their own. At The French Laundry we served a chocolate steamed pudding mostly because we found the finicky method intriguing. And then there are the nifty molds. Antiquated and practical, fitted with tight clasps, elegant metal molds over a hundred years old can still be found for sale at tag sales or \u003ca href=\"http://travel2.nytimes.com/top/features/travel/destinations/unitedstates/california/sanfrancisco/shop_details.html?vid=1083747045586\">dusty, quirky cookshops.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/steampud-759335.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/steampud-755615.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Are the \u003ca href=\"http://lacuisineus.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=80_191\">actual steamed pudding molds\u003c/a> absolutely necessary?

I worked on it with Sara Ko (then Sara Cameron), my co-pastry chef. As fun as it was to create I will admit to the fact that the texture has to be one you're fond of. Steamed pudding may well be more about the process than the end result.

Custards: eggy, rich, soft. \"Baby food\" in the worst of circumstances, and creme brulee in the best. But the word pudding comes from England's English where by saying pudding they mean dessert. Or sweet things in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's important to note these differences so that our physical expectation of the steamed pudding changes. \u003ca href=\"http://eggbeater.typepad.com/shuna/2005/05/although_i_shou.html\">\u003cb>For all custards need steam\u003c/b>\u003c/a>, if their consistency is to be smooth and creamy. No one wants to eat an overcooked creme caramel (it feels like a rubber band) or pot de creme (it looses all that melt-in-your-mouth quality you tried so hard, and spent so much money, to achieve.) Even a pannacotta done wrong can make a horrible impression, and that one's not even baked or cooked!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the steamed pudding is sitting in a tightly bound mold on a rack inside of a large pot on top of your stove boiling, and not in the expansive womb of the oven, it's important to have a recipe very low in flour.

To this add chocolate mixture and cook 5-10 minutes until thickened. Remove vanilla bean.\u003cbr>3. Bring yolks and sugar to ribbon stage. Slowly beat into this the chocolate mixture. Whisk whites until stiff. Into this, beat in a tiny amount of the whites and fold in the rest. (Like you would a mousse.)\u003cbr>4. Butter and sugar desired mold: the entire interior top and bottom. Gently, with a spatula, pour mixture into mold.\u003cbr>5. Have a stock pot ready with a rack in the bottom. Put mold on the rack; pour in water halfway up the side of the mold, being careful not to have water's edge too close to the mold's lid seam. Fit stock pot with tight fitting lid. Turn heat to low and cook, without removing lid, for at least 1 hour. You may need to peek to check on water level. If it becomes dangerously low be sure to add \"make-up\" water that is very hot or boiling. We cooked this recipe for 1 hour and 15 minutes. (Cooking time is never a definite number as time factors are based on equipment used.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When done, pull mold out and cool on rack for 10 minutes. Run knife around mold and invert. Tap mold with wooden spoon if it appears to be sticking. This dessert is best eaten soon after it's made.

Cool for about 10 minutes in rack, run knife around sides and unmold to eat. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steamed Puddings are best eaten soon after they are made, but may be warmed and unmolded individually to order, as you would in a restaurant setting. Because puddings baked in molds to be turned-out are often pre-lined with caramel, the marmalade is a nice alternative, and much easier to handle! If you've put a generous dollop it may take a bit longer for the steamed pudding to cook and set, but in the plating it will make an integral garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're one of those poeple who love to learn about culinary history experientially, you will appreciate steamed puddings.

That’s not necessarily a problem; soy tofu can be quite delicious, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2017/06/03/diy-tofu-making-homemade-tofu-is-easier-than-you-think/\">especially when you’re making it yourself\u003c/a>. But there are other tofus out there in the universe: Shan tofu, a Burmese preparation, made from chickpea flour; \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2012/01/31/hemp-tofu/\">hemp tofu\u003c/a>, which Vi Zahajszky made for this food blog back in 2012; peanut tofu, made in a similar manner to soy tofu; and a world of other tofu-like concoctions made from any bean you can think of.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooks have different reasons for making tofu from beans other than soy. Some are concerned about GMOs, others have soy allergies, while still others just like the flavor of a different type of bean. Personally, I’m in the “I want to explore new flavors” camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this exploration, I’ve learned that you can’t just pull another dried bean out of your pantry and follow soy tofu directions. Soybeans are actually quite unique, and it is their particular protein and fat proportions that allow their milk to be curdled and separated just like cheese. According to some internet sources, peanuts behave similarly to soybeans and, with the help of a couple of extra ingredients, can be treated the same way. (Unfortunately for all of you reading this, I am allergic to peanuts, so I’ll leave you to experiment with them and report back in the comments.) Other beans need an almost entirely different approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most common recipe for soy-free tofu is chickpea flour-based Shan tofu. Chickpea flour is simply finely ground dried chickpeas, and, thanks to its use in gluten-free baking, it is now fairly easy to find in grocery stores. However, I set out to make this recipe adaptable for any dried bean in your pantry and it is not very easy to find flours made from cannellini or pinto beans. (I’m also assuming that most of you do not own a grain mill with which you could grind your own dried beans into flour.) Instead, I decided to harness the power of starch, along with my bean milks of choice, to make my soy-free tofu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yes, before the definition police come calling, I do know that, traditionally, “tofu” is only made from bean curd. However, there already exists a range of tofu-like products made with other ingredients that are referred to as tofus, so I will do the same. You can make up your own new name if you’d prefer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_118121\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_.jpg\" alt=\"First, soak your bean of choice in cool water overnight.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1330\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118121\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-160x111.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-800x554.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-768x532.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-1020x707.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-1180x817.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-960x665.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-240x166.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-375x260.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-520x360.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">First, soak your bean of choice in cool water overnight. \u003ccite>(Kate Williams)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To get started, soak your bean of choice in cool water overnight.

Twist and squeeze the towel to get as much of the milk (and starch) out from the bean pulp as possible. Discard or compost the bean pulp; it is still raw and likely not very tasty!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, pour the milk into a pot along with a teaspoon of salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook the milk for 15 minutes. This cooking process will take away any raw bean flavor and will make the final tofu digestible and delicious. Depending on your bean of choice, you will notice that the milk will have started to thicken by this point. Chickpeas, for example, have quite a bit of starch in them, and their milk will turn to a thick custard on its own. In fact, some recipes say that you can cook chickpea milk to a tofu-like thickness all on its own; unfortunately, I did not have any success with this method.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To get the milk from custard to sliceable tofu, you will need to add more starch.

All beans contain some starch, but this is not enough to fully set the tofu on its own. Because every type of bean has a slightly different starch content, I’ve written this recipe to use a flexible amount of cornstarch. You may need to experiment a bit to find your perfect proportions. In this recipe I prefer to use light-colored beans, such as chickpeas or cannellini beans, instead of brown or black beans, because the final result is simply prettier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>½ cup dried beans, such as chickpeas or cannellini beans\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups water\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 teaspoon salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>⅓ cup cornstarch, plus more as needed\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>The night before making the tofu, place the dried beans in a large bowl and cover them with at least 2 inches of cold water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit on the counter overnight.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The next day, drain the beans in a colander and rinse with cold water. Transfer the beans to a blender and cover with the water. Blend until very smooth, about 1 minute. You should no longer be able to see any little bits of bean and the mixture should be slightly foamy.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Place a strainer over a large bowl or pot. Line the strainer with a thin kitchen towel or a triple layer of cheesecloth. Pour the bean milk slurry into the towel-lined strainer, letting the milk drain through.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bring the edges of the towel together to form a sack and twist to squeeze out more of the milk. Try to get out as much of the milk as possible. Compost the bean pulp. (Unlike with soybean tofu, this pulp is still basically raw, so it likely will not taste great.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Pour the strained bean milk into a medium saucepan, add the salt, and place the pot over medium heat. Bring the milk to a low simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Reduce the heat as low as it will go. Ladle out about a cup of the milk out into a large bowl. Sift the cornstarch over the milk in the bowl and whisk it in until smooth. Pour the cornstarch-milk mixture into the pot with the remaining milk and whisk until smooth. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until the bean mixture turns extremely thick and pulls away from the sides of the pot, 30 seconds to 1 minute. If the mixture does not thicken up, sift in additional cornstarch, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it does.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Transfer the tofu mixture to a loaf pan measuring about 9 by 5 inches (smaller loaf pans will work as well; your tofu will be thicker) and smooth the top as best you can. Let the tofu cool completely.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Flip the cooled tofu out onto a cutting board (it should slide right out) and cut into squares.

That’s not necessarily a problem; soy tofu can be quite delicious, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2017/06/03/diy-tofu-making-homemade-tofu-is-easier-than-you-think/\">especially when you’re making it yourself\u003c/a>. But there are other tofus out there in the universe: Shan tofu, a Burmese preparation, made from chickpea flour; \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2012/01/31/hemp-tofu/\">hemp tofu\u003c/a>, which Vi Zahajszky made for this food blog back in 2012; peanut tofu, made in a similar manner to soy tofu; and a world of other tofu-like concoctions made from any bean you can think of.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooks have different reasons for making tofu from beans other than soy. Some are concerned about GMOs, others have soy allergies, while still others just like the flavor of a different type of bean. Personally, I’m in the “I want to explore new flavors” camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this exploration, I’ve learned that you can’t just pull another dried bean out of your pantry and follow soy tofu directions. Soybeans are actually quite unique, and it is their particular protein and fat proportions that allow their milk to be curdled and separated just like cheese. According to some internet sources, peanuts behave similarly to soybeans and, with the help of a couple of extra ingredients, can be treated the same way. (Unfortunately for all of you reading this, I am allergic to peanuts, so I’ll leave you to experiment with them and report back in the comments.) Other beans need an almost entirely different approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most common recipe for soy-free tofu is chickpea flour-based Shan tofu. Chickpea flour is simply finely ground dried chickpeas, and, thanks to its use in gluten-free baking, it is now fairly easy to find in grocery stores. However, I set out to make this recipe adaptable for any dried bean in your pantry and it is not very easy to find flours made from cannellini or pinto beans. (I’m also assuming that most of you do not own a grain mill with which you could grind your own dried beans into flour.) Instead, I decided to harness the power of starch, along with my bean milks of choice, to make my soy-free tofu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yes, before the definition police come calling, I do know that, traditionally, “tofu” is only made from bean curd. However, there already exists a range of tofu-like products made with other ingredients that are referred to as tofus, so I will do the same. You can make up your own new name if you’d prefer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_118121\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_.jpg\" alt=\"First, soak your bean of choice in cool water overnight.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1330\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118121\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-160x111.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-800x554.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-768x532.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-1020x707.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-1180x817.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-960x665.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-240x166.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-375x260.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/soaked-white-beans_-520x360.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">First, soak your bean of choice in cool water overnight. \u003ccite>(Kate Williams)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To get started, soak your bean of choice in cool water overnight.

Or, do as I’ve been doing, and pop a few cubes into your mouth straight from the fridge as a protein-packed afternoon snack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_118118\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW.jpg\" alt=\"Homemade cannellini and chickpea tofus.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118118\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/both-tofus-6-NEW-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Homemade cannellini and chickpea tofus. \u003ccite>(Kate Williams)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Recipe: Homemade Soy-Free Tofu\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 1 pound\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Note:\u003c/strong> Unlike traditional soy tofu, which is made by separating soy milk into curds and whey, “alterna-tofus” are set by cooking down their milk and an additional starch. All beans contain some starch, but this is not enough to fully set the tofu on its own. Because every type of bean has a slightly different starch content, I’ve written this recipe to use a flexible amount of cornstarch. You may need to experiment a bit to find your perfect proportions. In this recipe I prefer to use light-colored beans, such as chickpeas or cannellini beans, instead of brown or black beans, because the final result is simply prettier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>½ cup dried beans, such as chickpeas or cannellini beans\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups water\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 teaspoon salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>⅓ cup cornstarch, plus more as needed\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>The night before making the tofu, place the dried beans in a large bowl and cover them with at least 2 inches of cold water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit on the counter overnight.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The next day, drain the beans in a colander and rinse with cold water. Transfer the beans to a blender and cover with the water. Blend until very smooth, about 1 minute. You should no longer be able to see any little bits of bean and the mixture should be slightly foamy.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Place a strainer over a large bowl or pot. Line the strainer with a thin kitchen towel or a triple layer of cheesecloth. Pour the bean milk slurry into the towel-lined strainer, letting the milk drain through.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bring the edges of the towel together to form a sack and twist to squeeze out more of the milk. Try to get out as much of the milk as possible. Compost the bean pulp. (Unlike with soybean tofu, this pulp is still basically raw, so it likely will not taste great.)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Pour the strained bean milk into a medium saucepan, add the salt, and place the pot over medium heat. Bring the milk to a low simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Reduce the heat as low as it will go. Ladle out about a cup of the milk out into a large bowl. Sift the cornstarch over the milk in the bowl and whisk it in until smooth. Pour the cornstarch-milk mixture into the pot with the remaining milk and whisk until smooth. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until the bean mixture turns extremely thick and pulls away from the sides of the pot, 30 seconds to 1 minute. If the mixture does not thicken up, sift in additional cornstarch, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it does.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Transfer the tofu mixture to a loaf pan measuring about 9 by 5 inches (smaller loaf pans will work as well; your tofu will be thicker) and smooth the top as best you can. Let the tofu cool completely.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Flip the cooled tofu out onto a cutting board (it should slide right out) and cut into squares.

Blending flavors from South Asia, the Middle East and neighboring African nations, Italy’s coercive history in the region lives in the baasto suugo suqaar on the menu. Jubba’s version features tomato paste, tomato sauce, bell peppers, onions, garlic, cilantro and xawaash, a blend of aromatic spices including cinnamon, cumin and cardamom, among others. “It’s a really robust pasta,” said Jubba cook Antonio Gomez, who worked at an Italian restaurant kitchen before joining the kitchen at the South Bay eatery two years ago. “It’s unique. You don’t get that flavor in Italian pasta.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.instagram.com/p/LTsXeRFMaM/\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Owner Amina Nur’s daughter, Leyla Mohamed, has her preferences when it comes to the dish, which can be served with beef, chicken or meat-free. “I like the tuna suugo and my family likes it with ground beef,” Mohamed said. Asked about the Somali’s transformation of Italian pasta, Mohamed sees it simply: “We like flavorful [food]. So it gives it extra flavor instead of it being plain.” Hence the spices, the banana and sometimes even a squeeze of lime juice. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first instance of an injera-swaddled pasta bite likely came as a circumstance of the two things sharing a plate. A noodle slinking away into a bite of injera and wot. Now, this combination is something that can be ordered at a restaurant where pasta shares equal real estate with native stews and greens on one platter. Suugo with pasta similarly shares a plate and flavor profiles with Somali-born dishes. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The source of pasta of course can never be obfuscated and that isn't a righteous venture.

While they are outwardly attractive when unripe, they only become gastronomically appealing once the skin mottles and starts to shrivel over the soft ripened fruit.

To coax Hachiyas into ripening, just set them out on your counter or window sill for a few days to over a week, depending on how firm they are. If you’re in a hurry, you can freeze a partially ripe Hachiya for at least 24 hours and then defrost it, which helps soften and sweeten the fruit.

So when I was in \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2009/08/06/berkeley-bowl-west/\">Berkeley Bowl West\u003c/a> a couple of weeks ago, checking out that great fish selection, I was surprised and intrigued to find barracuda cut into thick steaks. I had never seen barracuda for sale before, so asked the butcher about it. He had just told me all about the halibut they had, going through the fish monger motions of detailing where it came from, if it had been frozen, etc. But when I asked about the barracuda, his eyes lit up and a slow smile spread across his face. \"I had some last night,\" he said excitedly while leaning over the counter. \"And it was fantastic.\" Obviously, the halibut was a distant memory and I quickly asked for four pieces of barracuda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not sure what to do with this unexpected haul, I went online once I got home to look up some recipes. I was surprised to find that other than some sport fishermen sites, there really weren't any food articles available. Most cooking blogs, \u003ca href=\"http://www.epicurious.com/\">Epicurious\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://allrecipes.com/\">All Recipes\u003c/a>, and even \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodnetwork.com/\">The Food Network\u003c/a> haven't seemed to discover barracuda yet. There were a few recipes (barracuda burgers seemed the most popular choice), but the majority were for a \u003ca href=\"http://www.webtender.com/db/drink/5030\">cocktail made with vodka and Southern Comfort \u003c/a>(which sounds terrible). I stared at my computer and started to doubt my purchase. I mean, if I couldn't Google a recipe, then no one was writing about this fish. And if no one was writing about it then I was either lucky enough to have struck upon something unique and wonderful, or, more likely, I had just purchased a fish most people considered inedible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I went to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/SeafoodWatch/web/sfw_search.aspx?s=barracuda\">Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch site and looked up Barracuda\u003c/a>. The result was interesting, but a little vague. It classified barracuda as Wahoo, saying it was often sold as Ocean Barracuda and listed the fish as a Good Alternative, which means it won't kill you and isn't endangered. So far so good. But when I called Berkeley Bowl and talked to someone in the fish department, she said that what they sold was definitely barracuda and not Wahoo. Wikipedia then warned me that the great barracuda has \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barracuda\">\"been implicated in cases of ciguatera food poisoning.\"\u003c/a> It's always bad when Wikipedia says your dinner can kill you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deciding that I would trust Berkeley Bowl -- I mean, selling poisonous fish would be bad for business, right? -- I decided to cook it up anyway. The fillets were thick and had the consistency of fresh wild salmon -- dense with an oily silver skin that looked rich in Omega 3 fatty acids. I decided to grill the steaks with just a bit of olive oil, lemon and parsley. I wanted to experience the real barracuda flavor and so didn't want to smother it in a sauce or even butter (no barracuda meuniere for me). After grilling it as one would salmon fillets, and preparing a nice grilled asparagus and fig salad to go with it, we were ready to dig in. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The barracuda was surprisingly flaky while also being incredibly substantial. It didn't fall apart as many fish do after cooking and the meat felt almost plump. The flavor was mild, with a very nice fresh fish taste. I was interested to see that barracuda also presents well because the bone structure holds all the meat together beautifully, so it's a good choice to serve to guests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall my family and I really enjoyed our barracuda dinner. The flavor and texture were appealing, and it was fun to eat something a little different.

I had never seen barracuda for sale before, so asked the butcher about it.

I was surprised to find that other than some sport fishermen sites, there really weren't any food articles available. Most cooking blogs, \u003ca href=\"http://www.epicurious.com/\">Epicurious\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://allrecipes.com/\">All Recipes\u003c/a>, and even \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodnetwork.com/\">The Food Network\u003c/a> haven't seemed to discover barracuda yet. There were a few recipes (barracuda burgers seemed the most popular choice), but the majority were for a \u003ca href=\"http://www.webtender.com/db/drink/5030\">cocktail made with vodka and Southern Comfort \u003c/a>(which sounds terrible). I stared at my computer and started to doubt my purchase. I mean, if I couldn't Google a recipe, then no one was writing about this fish. And if no one was writing about it then I was either lucky enough to have struck upon something unique and wonderful, or, more likely, I had just purchased a fish most people considered inedible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I went to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/SeafoodWatch/web/sfw_search.aspx?s=barracuda\">Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch site and looked up Barracuda\u003c/a>. The result was interesting, but a little vague. It classified barracuda as Wahoo, saying it was often sold as Ocean Barracuda and listed the fish as a Good Alternative, which means it won't kill you and isn't endangered. So far so good. But when I called Berkeley Bowl and talked to someone in the fish department, she said that what they sold was definitely barracuda and not Wahoo. Wikipedia then warned me that the great barracuda has \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barracuda\">\"been implicated in cases of ciguatera food poisoning.\"\u003c/a> It's always bad when Wikipedia says your dinner can kill you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deciding that I would trust Berkeley Bowl -- I mean, selling poisonous fish would be bad for business, right? -- I decided to cook it up anyway. The fillets were thick and had the consistency of fresh wild salmon -- dense with an oily silver skin that looked rich in Omega 3 fatty acids. I decided to grill the steaks with just a bit of olive oil, lemon and parsley. I wanted to experience the real barracuda flavor and so didn't want to smother it in a sauce or even butter (no barracuda meuniere for me). After grilling it as one would salmon fillets, and preparing a nice grilled asparagus and fig salad to go with it, we were ready to dig in. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The barracuda was surprisingly flaky while also being incredibly substantial. It didn't fall apart as many fish do after cooking and the meat felt almost plump. The flavor was mild, with a very nice fresh fish taste. I was interested to see that barracuda also presents well because the bone structure holds all the meat together beautifully, so it's a good choice to serve to guests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall my family and I really enjoyed our barracuda dinner. The flavor and texture were appealing, and it was fun to eat something a little different.
