It's A City! It's A Food!

It’s called: Yuba
Found at: Some Asian markets
The package says: Dried Bean Curd
The form it takes: Sticks and sheets
WTF: Dried tofu skin.
Tofu has skin? It does seem curious, doesn’t it.
That’s dry? Again with the questions.
WTF do you do with it? Soak both in water. Use sheets for rolling vegan sushi and other rolled foods. Sticks are sliced or chopped and cooked in a sauce, like chicken.

Where can you buy it? K&S World Market at 5871 Charlotte Pike.
What Nashville eatery serves it? Golden Coast weekend buffet, in a delicious sauce that makes it taste like chicken. 1722 West End Ave., Saturday and Sunday 11 a.m.-3 p.m.

I have still never made it to the Saturday buffet at Golden Coast. I think I'll have to make a date for that some weekend this winter. Sounds cozy....when's fall get here again?

i had yuba at alinea in chicago. it was wrapped around a skewer of shrimp - then deep fried - with a miso dipping sauce.

Late November.

We just ate at the Golden Coast buffet last weekend after a few months break, and it was better than ever. Even bigger percentage of Chinese-Chinese (vs. American-Chinese) than before.
