    Well yeah, but it’s not smooth like tofu, there’s still chunks of bean that don’t get fully softened, but also don’t stay fully crunchy. It’s similar to the texture of stir-fried cashews (just held together), which I’m not a fan of.

    Unless I’ve only had bad tempeh, which is very possible: I first had it in my college dining hall and I’ve only tried it once or twice since.

      Ah okay, makes sense.

      And yeah, I actually never had tempeh myself. No idea where one would buy that around here…
