Tofu Cacciatore

November 25, 2020 by Sophie Leave a Comment

This Tofu Cacciatore stew is full of delicious vegetables

I know it’s a bit funny to have the idea of making a Tofu Cacciatore since Cacciatore means hunter in Italian, hahaha ! Hunter or not, I’m sure this stew will appeal even to carnivores. 

With its rich, rustic sauce this is a simple Italian comfort dish at its best! Easy to make and appreciated by the whole family, the aromas of Cacciatore fill your entire home with comfort and warmth when cooking in the oven!

Tofu 101

Tofu is made from curdled fresh soy milk, which has been compressed into blocks. It is generally 100% gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan.

Tofu has a neutral flavor that easily absord any seasoning you want to add.

Tofu is a vegetarian protein rich in calcium and protein. Tofu is also a great source of amino acids and is low in calories. Try to buy your tofu Organic or GMO-free

There are two main categories of tofu – silky or firm. The silky tofu is soft and liquidy because it contains a high volume of water content. Firm tofu can be medium, firm or extra-firm. For this recipe, you will need firm or extra-firm tofu.
