Tonight's Dinner

[Guest guest]

Boy was this good - even DH loved it. Said it was one of the better tofu

dishes I've ever made. What a compliment. It was really good. I got it

from Kathleen awhile back, when we were discussing grilling during the

summer. It is from Vegetarian Times in March 1999.

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

1/4 cup tamari sauce

1/4 cup fresh ginger -- minced

2 tbsp shallots

2 tbsp toasted sesame oil

1/4 cup rice vinegar

1 lb extra-firm tofu -- drained & sliced

2 tbsp wasabi powder

1/4 cup honey

4 cups cooked rice -- brown or wild

In a small bowl, combine tamari, ginger, shallots, sesame oil and rice

vinegar. Place tofu cutlets on platter and coat both sides with

marinade. Cover and refrigerate for several hours.

 

Arrange tofu cutlets on grill or in grill pan (or on GF Grill) and cook

on both sides until outside is lightly browned and center is warmed

through, about 3 minutes per side. Carefully remove to platter.

 

While tofu is cooking, combine wasabi and honey in a small mixing bowl.

Add water as needed to form a thick glaze.

 

Arrange grilled tofu steaks on a bed of hot rice. Brush with glaze and

sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot.

I served it with basmati rice with mushrooms drizzled with some sesame

oil and asparagus that was stir-fried with some slivered garlic.
