Oh nice, what's the food plan? Or is it a surprise?
We'll be having crispy hawaiian tofu tomorrow which is just about my fave food in the whole world, husband is also doing the cooking (he actually does that every day because he's one of those weirdos who enjoy it). Still very much looking forward to it though, not having to cook for myself never gets old!
We alternate cooking special meals on the weekends. Last weekend I didn't a pulled pork butt in the crockpot and this weekend he's going to do a nice steak dinner with mashed potatoes. Beef is a little expensive right now but we both wanted a real treat.
That's such a cozy tradition, I hope it's exactly as delicious as you're imagining!
Would be very curious to hear about more about your husband's crispy hawaiian tofu! I love tofu in any and all fashions and am always interested to find new ways to make it :)
It started with this recipe although I have no idea what tweaks he's made to it since! https://www.rabbitandwolves.com/crispy-hawaiian-garlic-tofu-vegan/
I do know the trick for us is to freeze the tofu first but as a fellow enjoyer I daresay you've got your own favourite prep method already.
You know I've done frozen tofu before for stir fry and the texture turns out pretty awesome, i just fell out of the habit because of the forethought to prep being ever so slightly more.
I'd be curious to try freezing then frying with a cornstarch dredge first, that's definitely my favorite crispy tofu method. I'm definitely gonna give that hawaiian garlic sauce a try, that sounds killer!
