      What I like about tofu is precisely that it doesn’t have much of a flavor, and simply takes on whatever you are cooking it in or with. The only time “plain” tofu really does it for me on its own is when it’s nice and salty and fried really crispy…but even then it’s better with some kind of sauce.

      But on its own, definitely not delicious. Just bland.

        Ah I never had tofu myself but paneer is literally my most favourite ingredient. Its pretty massive among vegetarians in India but I can see why some would hate it. I am guessing tofu would be very similar in texture.
