    i watched your piece on ctv montreal today. it’s been very disturbing to see what’s going on with the meat industry and last night on the hog farming industry in china — they stack the animals into highrise barns and little slots for the animals — and i’m ready to start to experimenting and have purchased your book and signed up for spud.ca so i can access some of the ingredients i can only get in quebec. it occurred to me the greenhouse emissions involved with moving these products across the country… are there brands of dairy alternatives like cheese you would recommend that are more local to the west coast of canada? merci!!!

    Delicious and real easy! Made last night with a side dish of whole wheat pasta. At first I was hesitant to use cornstarch as opposed to other recipes that use breadcrumbs as the coating. But I followed directions exactly and found it was less mushy and more crisp if that makes any sense – it just really worked better. I had a block of tofu in my refrigerator so it was a no brainer. Try it you’ll love it!
