Read MoreSriracha Paneer
Who doesn't like Sriracha? It's the solution to everything. It is spicy, flavorful and jazzes up anything you add it to. "Sriracha > every sauce that has ever existed," says, the biggest Sriracha fan ever, my hubby.
I needed a recipe for a finger food dish to make for my lovely friend, Devina's bridal shower. While I was spending hours and hours on Pinterest drooling over every food pin I saw, I instantly fell in love with this recipe. The original recipe was made with tofu but I decided to use Paneer instead, (Paneer = Indian cheese, tastes a lot like Ricotta). Paneer is made with whole milk that is typically curdled with a food acid (lemon juice or vinegar), then the water is drained out using a cheese cloth and the remaining curdled milk is pressed to form a tofu like consistency. The texture of paneer differs a lot from tofu, paneer is slightly gritty and dense whereas tofu is smooth and soft. You can find Paneer at any Indian grocery store or even make it at home.
Read MoreTofu Lettuce Wraps
My hubby requested Indo-Chinese food for dinner. I was going to make noodles and fried rice but I wanted to make something new as well, so tofu lettuce wraps came to mind. I had never made them before and only had them once at P. F. Chang's a few years ago! I went to Whole Foods and picked up butter lettuce, tofu and peanut butter. The peanut butter was probably the best I've ever had! It was the Whole Foods brand (365) peanut butter. So peanuty and so buttery...YUM! Move over Skippy & Jiffy.
Anyway, I came home and just threw some ingredients together and voila...came up with a delicious peanut sauce. Also, butter lettuce is preferred because of its smooth texture. And they're small and cute!
