Oh I haven’t had shawarma in years!
Hi Jill, I have read that steaming the tempeh before cooking helps with the bitter tempeh flavor. The one time I used the tempeh, I didn’t steam it and had an after taste. Do you think it might be a good idea to initially steam it for 10 or 15 minutes? Perhaps your recipe with all the lovely flavors already addresses it. Thanks
Hmm, I haven’t tried steaming it first. I might have to give it a try. We are used to the flavor so the bitterness doesn’t bother us anymore.
How is the tempeh prepared? It is not included in the instructions.
Thank you for letting me know. I use it straight from the package.
Where does the Tempeh come in ??
You add it when you add the cauliflower.
