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.

Do you still think that tofu is window putty? Maybe it is useful, but absolutely tasteless? You just don't know how to handle it! In this recipe, Vlad Suchkov acts as an advocate of soy cheese: he does not try to portray it as either fish or meat, but treats it as a full-fledged product. If you keep tofu (not for long!) in an elementary marinade of soy sauce, lemon juice and sugar, it will taste like an amazing thing, reminiscent of either a bamboo shoot or lemon marmalade, and will fit very well into the soup of young peas. And the soup itself, where an Asian accent is added by means of lemongrass, does not need advocates: such green soups are a real consolation for us in the slushy off-season. Vlad Suchkov shared this recipe with us, Chef of Blush gastrobar.
