Hi Jean,
Tempeh is a kind of soy product that is made up of soy beans, vinegar,
soy sauce and a Rhizopus culture (don't ask me what that is, all I know
it is a Tempeh starter - something that holds the other ingredients
together). Living in Australia, we get the NutriSoy Tempeh and it is
quite nice even on sandwiches. The one we have is like a small cake
block, which can be cut up into either strips, cubes or anything. I
don't know what kind you'd get were you are, but I'm pretty sure they're
all done the same way. If you want more information on what Tempeh is,
you can find it at http://www.tempeh.info/, or at Wikipedia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempeh). I think you can even buy Tempeh
sausage rolls also. I know this because my Mum and my brother are both
vegetarian (well, they do eat fish, just not meat).
Sorry that I couldn't be of any more help, but this is pretty much all I
know.
Cheers!
Bradley
