Wtf is happening?
Nothing against tofu, its a wonderful food, but I’m having trouble visualizing how tofu can ever replicate cheesecake. Do you have a recipe?
One quick google brings up this recipe: https://myquietkitchen.com/tofu-cheesecake/, which looks quite good. (I’m tempted to try it actually, it’s been awhile since I had cheesecake!)
The important thing is that it uses silken tofu, which is a totally different texture from the tofu you’d usually use in a stir fry or scramble. I’ve had silken tofu chocolate pudding and it was one of the best desserts I’ve ever experienced. I have no doubt it would make a great cheesecake.
I made a tofu cheesecake and I think I remember just taking regular firm tofu and blending it in either soymilk or water until it got velvety but IDK, maybe it tasted awful and not like cheesecake.
There are also vegan cream cheese variants or you can take vegan yoghurt and get the water out by wrapping it in a dishtowel. My wife is really crafty with this stuff, shoot me a DM if you have any baking related questions.
