  2. My boy loves tempeh too. In fact, along, I am not aware of tempeh until lately.

    Guess, the awareness of goodness of tempeh is not there yet.

    Most of the time, I coat it with some spice salt and oil and toasted it. Easier, unless I am deep-frying something, I will then give it a quick deep-fry.

    Cheers :)
