    I wanted to make a super juicy, meaty, textured piece of tofu that could be given the name A5 Tofu Wagyu... and I think I nailed it!!
    This is a combination of tofu and seitan or wheat meat and WOW does it come out meaty!

    So I know this one is a long process. I always enjoy it but I know a lot of people wish things were easier. Maybe some steps could be shortened, or omitted, but I think it all adds to the realism.
    What should I try next?

      Why don’t you try it with the jack fruit? Since it has the fibers you may be able to accomplish the actual look of the steak. I tried the jack fruit - not the pulp but the fiber part to make pulled chicken and it came out pretty good 😊

    Can you make a lot of those wagfus and freeze for months later meals?

    Have you frozen tofu yet? It's amazing. When you thaw it lots of water comes out.

    I am mad at you for not sharing a piece of that wagyu!!
    Besides jokes, i really liked the technique of mixing tofu MC and gluten. I'll totally, try it.
    At least for me i am always trying to get a better piece of meat for the BBQs, that really does not dry off on the grill :(
    This might be the recipe
