Tofu Masterclass with Chef Alex – Transform Your Tofu Game

Cook along live from your own kitchen – and fall in love with tofu (yes, really)

Why tofu?

Tofu isn’t just a meat substitute – it’s a powerhouse of plant-based nutrition, used for over 2,000 years. Learn how to shop for it, choose between silken and firm, smoked or sweet, and how to turn it into something truly exciting.

Even if you think you don’t like tofu, Chef Alex has converted countless doubters over 20 years of teaching. (He’s still not a fan of gooseberries – but tofu? Game changer.)
