In reply to Mackenzie. I haven't tried it, but it probably would! Sometimes tofu takes on a different texture when it's frozen and thawed, but many people prefer it that way. Let me know if you try it!

My family enjoyed this recipe. My son is interested in geography, so from time to time we research random countries, write a report, cook a meal etc. This time was Chad, which we knew next to nothing about, and it was a fun recipe to cook while learning about a new culture. I used dried beans and fresh tomatoes, and substituted the cardamom with allspice because that’s what I had in the pantry. Thanks for the interesting recipe! I will make it again.

Does this freeze well?

In reply to Anonymous. The frozen strawberries release more of their juices because the freezing process breaks many of the plant cells and concentrates the strawberry flavor. You could certainly use fresh, but you may need to add more liquid depending on the juiciness of your berries.

Do the strawberries have to be frozen, or can you simply puree fresh organic strawberry? What is the purpose of using frozen?

In reply to Kak1960. Unsweetened! It's similar to cream of coconut, but with more water in it. When you look at the cans of coconut, there's regular and lite. The regular is the full-fat version that I use. You could also use the cream and just add some water if you can't find regular coconut milk.

Are you using sweetened or unsweetened full fat coconut milk? Is full fat the same as cream of coconut?

In reply to Anonymous. It's just for color -- totally optional!

Is the beet juice necessary or just for color

The cake part of the recipe was good, I used the applesauce option But the icing never tasted right, so I ended up throwing it out and dusting with powdered sugar instead
