    Thanks. It’s extra firm tofu, water pressed out, then I froze it to get more water out. Tore the tofu into bite sized bits into a bowl, added some soy sauce, maple syrup and rice vinegar to it and let it marinade for a bit. I was out of regular flour so I used chickpea flour for the breading… In one bowl I added corn starch and chickpea flour and in another a bowl the same but with some water and mix it. Coat the bites in the dry mix, into the wet mix, back to the dry then shallow fry the bites. Cool then coat with your preferred sauce. Edit worth mentioning that while it was thawing I squeezed water from it. I was surprised at how much was in it.

    I dunno, really, it’s the skin and tendons… I try to minimise good waste as best I can, but the bits cut off and removed would be the part you hold the drum and likely didn’t eat. I’d say it feels like waste but really no one eats that bit. Plus, this way if you have pets, they get a treat and that skin and 5mm of tendon gets eaten 🙂

    It is a chicken drumstick, you cut and peel the skin/tendons from the drumstick where it starts to narrow. It is a bit of work doing that bit, then you simply push the meat down into a ball. I then seasoned it, smoked it, when they were done smoking I filled a coffee cup with BBQ sauce and dipped the meat into it and caramelized it on the BBQ.YouTube link This is where I saw them done. Seen a version where there were deep fried, going to give that a try sometime
