Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Chile-garlic sauce

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    This recipe is delicious, but definitely not for the weeknight. I planned to make everything in advance, but life got in the way. Anyway, everything is so flavorful and combines very well. Do not skip the sauces as the tofu needs both for flavor. I found the broth at the end a bit superfluous, but it’s good she found a way not to waste it. If one didn’t love the flavor, they could freeze it for later and not make a soup with the zucchini and shiitake. I will say that there are waaaaay more ingredients in this recipe than listed in Eat You Books. There are 5 separate recipes included in this one recipe. Each recipe has its own ingredients for a total of 25.

    Delicious! The sauces really make the dish, don't skip on 'em. Crispy chickpeas also work great.
