Who knew chickpea flour could make such good tofu!? Chickpeas are one versatile food. In this video I show you a few variations including a smoked chickpea tofu, an herby one and a sweet cinnamon dessert version.
This is actually a version of Burmese Tofu. It cooks up nice and crispy and is even easier to make than the lentil tofu I shared a few weeks back.
