The closest analogue of this strictly vegan tartare from Andrey Zhdanov, chef of the Modus restaurant, is the well-known beetroot salad with feta cheese and walnuts. But tofu, which plays the role of feta cheese here, lacks the creaminess and saltiness typical of brine cheese. Therefore, the taste of the dish goes towards freshness rather than density: the contrast with the sweetish beetroot is provided by the lively green peas with a menthol note of fresh mint, which have turned into a sauce, the aroma is provided by the lemon zest in the dressing, and the tofu serves as a neutral background for everything else.

Lenten and vegetarian dishes should be attractive to smooth out the sadness of voluntary asceticism. Beetroot risotto is just one of those, lean, but beautiful and bright. The risotto itself is prepared as usual: you just need to combine rice with fried beetroot cubes, constantly stirring in a saucepan and slowly adding broth, wait until the cereal reaches the al dente state and becomes an even crimson color. In the end, the risotto is generously sprinkled with crumbled tofu, pre- marinated in lemon and garlic. The stereo effect is that the tastes of red rice and snow-white tofu are combined only in your mouth: creamy texture, light beetroot sweetness, barely perceptible garlic note and perfume aroma of zest.

The essence of the salad is that deep-fried tofu and thinly sliced carrots, cucumber and red onion feathers are combined with a spicy Asian-style dressing with ginger, fish sauce, sesame oil , chili and a whole bunch of mint and cilantro. This is exactly the case when tofu does not pretend to be anything, but looks exactly what it is: a pure protein product with a luxurious silky texture. The king of the salad is the retinue (that is, the sauce) - with its help, a pile of ordinary garden vegetables turns into an exotic dish that intrigues the receptors. How spicy the dressing should be due to the hot chili and how tart and salty due to the fish sauce is left to the discretion of the chef.
