EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Tofu is sold in blocks or cakes in three textures: soft, firm and extra-firm. Look for it in sealed packages in the refrigerator section of the supermarket.

To reheat leftover rice and restore its fluffy tenderness, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water and heat in a covered saucepan.

I tried this recipe with all 15 of my kids. Even though I had to just about quadruple the ingredients, it was delicious and everyone loved it. I usually serve it after my 6 son's soccer games.
