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

Accompaniments: Collard greens with sesame-miso cream

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.

    Can substitute tamari for soy sauce.

    Love this recipe. I sometimes char cabbage first and braise it with the tofu. I’ve also added yogurt whey and water to make the broth go further.

    Nice and easy. I deep fried the tofu because already had a pot of oil on the stove from earlier in the week. I used maybe half the sugar the recipe called for and could have used even less. Threw some greens in there (spinach and arugula) at the end to round out the meal.

    Wow, what a great recipe. Super flavorful, dense and chewy. It is nice to have another way to fix tofu. I followed the directions except I didn’t have a pepper so I added a quarter teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Will be making again for sure.
