Escabeche it's a popular preparation in Latin America that describes an acidic sauce or marinade made with tomatoes, peppers, citrus, and olive oil. In Chef Cacau's take on escabeche, the tangy sauce is paired with crispy fried tofu that stands in for the fried fish you'd typically find in Brazil. The tofu is marinated for 24 hours in a special blend of seasonings including dried seaweed that adds to the fish-like flavor, then breaded, and deep fried. The escabeche tofu comes with potatoes and green olives to complete this simple and delicious dish.

This is so tasty! My one wish is that there would be more vegetables. Without rice or noodles to the dish, it feels a bit sparse.

Great taste, I was surprised at how tasty this dish was. Tofu doesn't have a lot of taste but this was excellent
