Notes

Recipe

I followed The Horizons Cookbook: Gourmet Meatless Cuisine Tofu Crab & Corn Bisque Recipe, garnishing with smoked paprika and fresh Italian parsley.

Tasting

Don't skimp on the saffron or soy cream cheese; this dish is both elegant and rich enough to be a main course, and is an excellent summer meal when preceded by a fresh salad and followed by a light fruit crumble
