About

Tempeh is a natural, unadulterated product that can be easily transformed into tasty and nourishing plant-based dishes. I have always enjoyed tempeh, but my appreciation for it grew even more after I learned how to make it from scratch. I particularly enjoy experimenting with ways to prepare, shape, and transform this otherwise unassuming soy product.
