I feel like you could try putting this on a smoker instead of steaming and that would be good too

The broken blocked stuff looks like tofu. I didn’t see any vital wheat gluten going in.

I actually don't have tofu at the moment, surprisingly, LOL what could I use instead could I use pureed cashews but obviously not too wet or anything...
