“Cashew chicken” is a classic Chinese dish but, alas, you have to eat chicken to enjoy it. Not anymore! There's no reason in 2019 one can't taste the fine nutty sweet-and-spicy flavors, but in tofu form. Turns out, crispy tofu is just as good a vehicle for cashew needs. Who knew? Vegetarians knew. Why coat the tofu in cornstarch? For the crisp! The almost-100% starch content of cornstarch helps make the tofu both crispy and golden brown.
