1 package firm tofu
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons grated or finely minced ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons mirin or other white wine
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce.
Heat the oven to 375°F. Cut the tofu into ~10 slices and put them in an oven dish. Mix the other ingredients, and pour them over the tofu. Bake for 40-50 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
Miso asparagus from this recipe.
1 large bunch asparagus, trimmed
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
4 teaspoons white miso
4 teaspoons white wine
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Heat the oven to 375°F. Mix all the ingredients except the asparagus together. Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet and pour the marinade on top, mixing around a bit. Put in the oven for about 35 min.
I stumbled on the asparagus recipe and it seemed like a great idea as S has been super into miso and to a lesser extent asparagus recently. And the tofu one was just an afterthought as I had some tofu that needed eating and hadn't tried baking it before. Actually, in the end I liked the tofu much better - didn't think the miso texture went all that well with the asparagus, but the tofu was dead tasty - the sweetness from the honey, saltiness from the soy and gentle fire from the ginger went really well.
