Tofu with Broccoli Stir Fry
I’ve been experimenting with methods of cooking a crispy tofu. The oven works okay, but this battered and deep-fried tofu has a tempura-like texture that takes it to another level. Crisp on the outside and soft on the inside.
The Reformation by Peter Marshall
I read this book for two reasons. The secondary reason was because my Western Civilization (in the 1970’s we still focused primarily on Western history) professor at the College of Idaho – Franklin Specht – made the Reformation come alive. There I was, my first year in college, wet behind the years at 18, having no real idea of how history shaped our culture or why I should care. Thanks to Professor Specht, I learned about impacts of events like the Reformation and the French Revolution.
