Glossary
Tofu - Tofu is soybean curd. It has a naturally bland flavor
but has the ability to easily take on the flavor of other ingredients cooked with the
tofu. Read more about the health benefits of Soy.
Vegan - Pronounced (VEH-guhn). A vegan is a vegetarian that
does not eat any foods from animal sources including no meats, fish, butter,
cheese, eggs or milk products.
Pots de Creme - Pronounced (poh duh KREHM). This term refers to both the small
lidded container (pot) as well as a the baked custard served inside. This recipe is
not a "true" pots de creme in that it is not a custard made primarily of egg
yolks, nor is it baked.

chocolate.
