Guest guest Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hi, I discovered plain tempeh near the tofu and soy cheeses in our market. It looks like a whiteish flat hardish curds with dark spots here and there which resemble black mold...yuck I thought when I first saw it. Then I read about tempeh and noted that the dark coloring is from the fermented soybeans. I have never seen a price on it, so I have not bought it. Supposedly it is a very good source of protein and yummy when fixed with teriyaki sauce or bbq sauce. You might find what you are looking for at an Asian market or a large natural foods store, since it is probably a more speciality item.

I've learned that a lot of things I never knew we had available here in Waco, I just overlooked or didn't know what I was looking at when I saw it....lol.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Ah, but it is mold (or more accurately, it's spores). I make my own tempeh, and it is even better than the storebought. Much more flavorful (mushroomy) and RICH. Mmmmm...
