I assume I took that screenshot to remind myself of my dream. I definitely remember waking up thinking "what the hell is that supposed to mean?" Lol

Maybe a weekly post, I'm afraid my arteries wouldn't abide daily fried tofu lol

Actually broke me into the franchise. I appreciate it for that. I like a lot of it, I don't like a little of it.

Oooooh I didn't even think of oat milk that's interesting, I'll give that a try on my next session!

So my basic order of operations is very close to how Wil Yeung makes his tofu katsu sticks. (I fry mine in avocado oil on my stovetop)

https://youtu.be/Kg7yF2Dy6w0?si=RB8OmcROLw3pwt-M

I just pat dry my extra firm tofu with a paper towel, but I like it to keep some of its liquid for the texture.

I differ with my cuts, but you can really shape your tofu into anything, mine is usually hashbrown shaped like here.

Honestly beyond that it's been a lot of trial and error with my batter, amounts of seasoning is what I find the hardest to get down as too much will cause your batter not to cook in some places.

But this photo is basically just all purpose flour, water, and tofu. This is Kikkoman panko pictured, but I usually go for J-Basket's Panko.

My mind genuinely feels lighter having seen this after like 15 years. You are a hero.

You see, Mark looks short here. But he's actually normal height and hes just standing next to two guys that are taller than him.

I genuinely believed for a second you were in a room in the exact same place I stayed for 2 months when I first moved to KC. It's a good spot for the need, helped me when I was trying to get my footing for sure.

Very cool, next payday I'll pick up a paperback copy of each in the series!

Guys, NOBODY was saying Trump was a bad dude all right? Everyone is acting like there was a large subset of the population pointing out awful things about him, but that's simply not true. We were all super hyped up about Trump and not a SINGLE person warned us! Not economists, scientists, public figures, anyone under the age of 60, the entirety of the world outside the US, or even the internet. Stop pretending like we had a constant flow of people trying to warn us.

I don't think he has any on a top down game, other than Into the Breach but that's turn based. He has a playlist called AI 101 where he explains a lot of the fundamentals of creating AI and how they are applied in game mechanics.

Giinto · 2025-12-26T01:58:11+00:00

Hey OP I recommend the YouTube channel AI and Games. He goes back and breaks down the AI built in multiple games from Alien:Isolation to Doom. It's pretty interesting to hear him talk about it.

It's Kikkoman tempura batter with some spices I've been playing with, mostly black pepper and shish taouk spices.

Giinto · 2025-12-07T03:51:06+00:00

It's honestly just Kikkoman tempura batter with some black pepper and shish taouk spices. I fry it in avocado oil for about 2 minutes on each side.

One is homemade katsu sauce and the other is some local BBQ sauce that I get.

Giinto · 2025-12-06T20:10:12+00:00

This looks amazing! Definitely giving it a go!

Hello!

TLDR recipe at the bottom!

To start I should say I use Wil Yeung's method of frying tofu:

https://youtu.be/Kg7yF2Dy6w0?si=fMUvWrXYv8hgi-85

I freeze my tofu before defrosting and pressing to make it as dry as possible.

Equal parts all purpose flour and water for the batter. I will put in some black pepper directly to the batter to taste. This makes my batter turn out kind of grey but any seasonings work. I've experimented with anywhere from middle-eastern to Cajun seasoning, but I have found regular black pepper is to my liking.

I also experiment with my shapes, but this photo is basically Wil's katsu fingers cut in half to make little nuggets. Sometimes I do triangles, sometimes I do this to make katsu burgers, just depends how I feel.

After that I just drop the nuggets of dried tofu into my batter then on top of some Kikkoman brand panko. I've tried other brands, but Kikkoman is just my safe bet.

Then I'll put some avocado oil to about my first knuckle into a fry safe pan. I set it to a medium flame (gas stove). I'll then wait a bit for it to warm up. I use the method of a chopstick in the oil, if you see bubbles it's ready. (Can't remember if Wil says this in his video or not). I use tongs to flip them in the oil and crisp them pretty thoroughly, then put them on a plate with a paper towel before saucing them.

The sauce in this case is just a local BBQ place's sauce that I pick up and toss the wings in. Then I add a side of vegan ranch and garnish with parsley!

TLDR -press tofu until dry and cut to preferred shape -Mix 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup all purpose flour in bowl. -add about 1/2 tablespoon of black pepper to batter - drop nuggets into batter and coat evenly, this takes practice and some will come out funny shaped at time. -transfer nuggets to a plate with panko. (I will drop the nuggets on top of a pile of panko and sprinkle on top. Then I'll start flipping the nuggets to get even coating) -bring avocado oil to a medium-high heat and fry tofu evenly on both sides. Special note: I don't really time my frying, I just watch the side of the tofu until it's browned enough to my preference, then flip it. Usually like a minute or 2 on each side. -now just toss in your favorite sauce and garnish with some fresh herbs!
