'pleonasmic' edamame tofu

Pleonasm (from Greek, pleon: more, too much) is the use of more words or word-parts than is necessary for clear expression (source: wikipedia) <br /> <br />Ever use such terms as 'Chai Tea', or 'Paneer cheese' with fellow foodies & have them react as if they just heard you draw your fingernails across a chalkboard?? <br />yeah well The title of my recipe will invariably invoke such a reaction, but what am I supposed to do?. Its a direct one to one translation of the classic Indian dish Mutter (peas) -paneer. <br /> Whatever the name may be, This ALL SOY dish turned out to be a classic keeper, the marinaded tofu has a softer texture than paneer which tends to be relatively chewy (at least the store bought variety), and the edamame confers its firm delicious texture minus the hint of sweetness that Peas have.. Go ahead, make this & enjoy it over a plate of piping hot fresh basmati or Jasmine rice. You'll forgive me for the chalkboard memory!
