Blue Corn Crusted Tempeh with Shitake Mushroom Gravy

I love ordering tempeh at vegetarian restaurants but never know how to cook it at home. The substantive fermented soy cakes make a great meat substitute.

So this Blue Corn Crusted Tempeh recipe on “The Splendid Table” radio show grabbed me. And I had shitake mushrooms in the fridge, so I paired it with the savory gravy. It was somewhat involved, but about as good as a tempeh recipe can get, Dan said. Well, it still doesn’t compare to the yummy sesame tempeh here in Corvallis.
