Hi all,
I am Meena Aithala from Lake Charles, LA. One of my friends, Keshavaraj, who
is a scientist (Louisville, KY) came up with an interesting fact (while
experimenting in his kitchen lab!) that tofu can be used as a replacement
for coconut. I know that there are many people out there who want to use
tofu but keep away because of its bland taste. Hope this recipe will make
you use tofu in your regular cooking. For more info on tofu, pls visit
www.tofu.com/whatis.html
