T&T Challenge

Through an interactive, online forum, Kim O'Donnel is challenging home chefs to whip up tofu and tempeh.
By Abigail Wick
Chef, former Washington Post columnist, and food writer Kim O'Donnel is encouraging fans of her weekly Culinate web chat to take the T&T Challenge, which calls on her followers—including meat-eaters—to give tempeh and tofu a try in their personal kitchens. O'Donnel explains that many omnivores are interested in eating protein alternatives for environmental and health reasons, but that they often feel intimidated when it comes to T&T. Her week-long challenge begins April 5, and meatless adventurers won't have to go it alone—plant-powered culinary celebrities like Bryant Terry and Isa Chandra Moskowitz will be posting tips and advice on O'Donnel's Licking Your Chops blog. Five readers will be selected to blog about their T&T kitchen experiments on her website.
