Low-calorie * Tofu "Chicken" Soboro

There's no worry about ingredient costs since its just tofu! The seasoning is slightly sweet. I've arranged it by adding ginger so it's not too obvious that it's tofu. Can be used as recovery food for acalculous cholecystitis or people with digestive issues.
The finished dish will look great if you break the tofu into pieces using a wooden spatula or whisk, while letting the moisture cook off.
It can burn easily near the end, so lower the heat if needed. You can freeze it in a jar or Ziploc. Recipe by Otometeo

Just Like Meat! Koya Tofu Soboro Just Like Meat! Koya Tofu Soboro
I made this for my elderly mother, who doesn't like meat.Be sure to cook it patiently to evaporate the moisture. This is especially important at the beginning. If the heat is too strong the tofu will splatter, so pay attention!If you let too much moisture evaporate though, the crumbles will become dry and mealy. If you turn the heat off too early, it will be soggy. Just stop cooking when it reaches the crumbly soboro stage.The heat level and judging when to stop cooking are very important!
