How do they make tofu taste and feel like chicken?

how do they make tofu taste and feel like chicken?

I'm eating "BBQ Unchicken" right now, and although the texture isn't quite exact, it feels pretty meaty.

one word, BRAGGS! (liquid amino) and maybe a properly seasoned textured vegetable protein. When you season it right and fry it on tofu it tastes a lot like chicken. If your looking for the chicken texture here's a great recipe. It has some ingredients you might not have lying around the house though, and its a lengthy process. The recipe itself has a weird texture but heres how you fix that; you process the tofu, add a TINY bit more nutritional yeast and about a half mashed potato into the batter. After that reform them into block or wings and you will have yourself a great texture. Its more of a middle school cafeteria chicken texture though. Not the best but better!

It's all about the spices and seasonings they put on the tofu, and they make it firm enough (they start with firm or extra firm tofu), so it gives it that chicken feel when you bite into it. The texture of the tofu has to do with the time and temperature they cook it, and let it sit after it's cooked. Some of the seasonings may be a combination of any of the following: Olive Oil, Garlic, Onions, Orange or Lemon Juices, Vinegar, Soy Sauce, and Sugar.
