Similar to tofu, it&#8217;s a fairly blank canvas to experiment with flavors and texture. It has a slight nutty taste with a firm but chewy bite. You can steam it, bake it, saute it, but we mostly air fry it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Tempeh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tempeh has been in Indonesian cooking for hundreds of years. It is made from fermented soybeans! The natural fermentation process of using a legume, starter culture, and water, binds the soybeans into a block form. Because of this fermentation, tempeh is high in nutrients and easy for our guts to digest. It&#8217;s a wonderful complete protein that also has B-12, which makes it a great meat replacement!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are The Health Benefits of Eating Tempeh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>High Protein Content<\/strong>: Tempeh is rich in protein, providing all essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fiber and Vitamins<\/strong>: It contains dietary fiber, vitamins (especially B vitamins), and minerals like magnesium and iron.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Probiotics<\/strong>: The fermentation process introduces beneficial probiotics, which can support gut health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Make Easy Tempeh Bacon with Simple Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We love to keep this recipe simple by not even mixing the sauce ingredients beforehand. Cook the tempeh without any seasoning first. Just oil the pan and fry the tempeh for a minute or two on each side. Once it&#8217;s a little golden we add the ingredients one-by-one into the pan with the tempeh. It&#8217;s quick and simple, plus easy clean up since all you will dirty is a pan and probably a cutting board and knife. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For an even easier clean up, use the same recipe to make a tempeh crumble. Simply use your hands to crumble the tempeh onto the pan! Tempeh crumble makes a great meat replacement in tacos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_5521-Edited-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Serving Suggestions <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/split-pea-soup-with-smokey-tempeh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Split pea soup with smokey tempeh crumble<\/a><\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A side to <a href=\"https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/tofu-scramble-a-la-mexicana\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">tofu scramble<\/a><\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>As a crumble for loaded nachos or <a href=\"https:\/\/somevegancouple.com\/staging\/fresh-cut-french-fries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">fries<\/a><\/strong>.
