Hello,
The title of my recipe may surprise you, but let's say it's another approach to making lasagna, without using an oven (if you don't have one). In addition, I chose to put tempeh in it, a food that I don't eat very often but which is so good and has a lot of good health properties!
What is tempeh ?:
Tempeh is a traditional food from Indonesia, it is made from fermented soybeans.
Tempeh which is pronounced "tem-pè", a taste that is similar to that of mushrooms or even walnuts. High in vegetable protein and low in lipid, it is an excellent food for alternatives to the meat diet. It is also very rich in minerals and various phytochemicals, including phytosterols, which are beneficial for the health of the heart.
To obtain this kind of whitish paste, whole soya beans are cooked, crushed into patties, and seeded with a mushroom (Rhizopus oligosporus). Tempeh is thus obtained through a fermentation process, during which mold forms at a controlled temperature, as is the case with some cheeses.
Fermentation of legumes (soybeans in this case) is a manufacturing method that offers several advantages.
As is the case with fermented soy products (tamari sauce, miso), the soybeans used in making tempeh are fermented, which produces enzymes that increase the "digestibility" as well as the nutritional value of this. product.
The fermentation process also causes an increase in certain amino acids, which improves the biological value of the proteins contained in tempeh, compared to those contained in tofu.
A great substitute for meat in many dishes, tempeh should be cooked before eating. Traditionally served as a stir-fry with vegetables, this versatile food can also be grilled, marinated, chopped or incorporated into gravy once cooked.
Like tofu, tempeh tastes better when marinated or seasoned ;)
