Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound tofu -- (firm, if possible)

1/2 cup soy sauce -- Kikkoman (shoyu)

2 tablespoons sesame oil -- toasted

1/2 cup water

1 tablespoon rice vinegar -- or wine vinegar

hot pepper sauce -- to taste

1 pinch mustard powder

1 pound Chinese noodles -- soy flat noodles

1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

1 bunch green onions -- thinly sliced

 

At least 24 hours before making the dish, freeze the tofu. For a firmer

texture, it may be frozen after draining the liquid. Thaw tofu; drain it and

slice into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Mix shoyu, sesame oil, water, vinegar, pepper

sauce, and mustard. Marinate tofu slices, then fry in a skillet until browned

on both sides. Set aside to cool slightly. Cook noodles in water with a small

amount of oil until done. Drain thoroughly. Meanwhile, slice tofu slabs into

small pieces, about 1-inch long and 1/2-inch wide. Mix tofu pieces into cooked

noodles along with remainder of marinade liquid. Sprinkle green onions and

sesame seeds over dish.

 

Makes 8 servings.

 

NOTES: Even folks who say they hate tofu enjoy this dish. It doesn't keep well,

but you probably won't have any leftovers to worry about.

 

Note: You should be sure you're using real shoyu soy sauce (such as Kikkoman),

not an imitation--it does make a difference in the flavor. Similarly, you can

use noodles other than soy flat noodles, but the flavor will be quite different.

(You can find soy noodles at natural foods stores.)
