Time 1h

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup water
6 tablespoons liquid soy seasoning (such as Bragg®)
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
1 (1 inch) piece minced fresh ginger root
1 large clove garlic, crushed
½ (12 ounce) package firm tofu
5 ounces medium-width rice stick noodles
2 tablespoons avocado oil, or as needed
2 cups chopped portabello mushrooms
1 (8 ounce) package cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
½ white onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Combine water, liquid soy seasoning, arrowroot, ginger, and garlic in a jar. Set glaze aside.
  • Line a plate with paper towels, set tofu on top, and add another layer of paper towels. Place a cutting board on top of the tofu and set a heavy pot on the board. Let sit for 30 minutes, replacing the paper towels as needed, to press as much liquid as possible from the tofu.
  • Place rice noodles into a large bowl, cover with cold water, and soak. Cut pressed tofu into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add tofu and stir-fry until all sides are golden, about 5 minutes. Add all mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Mix in bell pepper and onion, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Pour glaze on top and cook until sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove rice noodles from water, shake off excess liquid, and add to the wok. Stir-fry until heated thorough, about 3 minutes.

Soba Noodles With Tofu, Shiitake Mushrooms and Broccoli image

I like to use soba for this dish. The buckwheat noodles have a nutty flavor and contribute a measure of all-important whole grain to the dish.

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 generously

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound broccoli, crowns broken or cut into small florets, stems peeled and diced
2 tablespoons canola oil or peanut oil
6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps quartered
2 plump garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
6 scallions, white and light green parts only, sliced
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 pound firm tofu, sliced and drained on paper towels
1 cup chicken stock or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons soy sauce (more to taste)
1/2 pound soba or udon noodles, or dried rice sticks (soak rice sticks in hot water for 20 minutes)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. Add the broccoli to the boiling water and blanch for 1 minute. Remove to the ice water. Allow to cool, then drain and dry on paper towels. Cover the pot of water and keep hot.
  • Heat a wide, heavy skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the oil. When it is rippling hot, add the mushrooms and sear for 5 minutes, stirring from time to time. Turn the heat to medium, add the garlic, ginger, scallions, and red pepper flakes and cook for another 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. Remove from the heat and transfer the contents of the pan to a bowl.
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat and heat the remaining tablespoon of oil until rippling. Add the tofu and sear on both sides until it begins to color, about 1 minute per side. Add 1 teaspoon soy sauce and stir together. Return the mushroom mixture and the broccoli to the pan. Add the stock and soy sauce, bring to a simmer and turn the heat to low. Simmer uncovered for a minute or two, until the broccoli is crisp-tender, then turn off the heat.
  • Meanwhile, bring the pot of water back to a boil and add the pasta. Cook soba or udon noodles until al dente, about 5 minutes. Cook softened rice noodles for 1 minute. Drain and toss with the mushrooms and the broccoli. Heat through, add the cilantro and sesame oil, toss together, and serve.

SOBA NOODLES WITH SHIITAKES, BROCCOLI AND TOFU



Soba Noodles With Shiitakes, Broccoli and Tofu image

Soba noodles are Japanese, not Chinese, but I love using them in Chinese stir-fries. They have a wonderful nutty flavor, and buckwheat has a lot going for it nutritionally - it is a good source of manganese, copper and magnesium, and it is also high in phytonutrients. To make a quick vegetable stock, simmer the shiitake mushroom stalks in a small amount of water for about 20 minutes.

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon soy sauce (more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or 1 to 2 serrano or Thai chiles, minced
8 ounces soba noodles
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/2 pound baby broccoli
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil or canola oil
1/2 pound tofu, cut in dominoes or small dice
6 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed (discard stems or use for stock), caps sliced
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced, dark green parts separated
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Combine stock, soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, sugar and salt to taste in a small bowl. Stir until sugar and salt dissolve. Combine garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes or minced chile in another bowl.
  • Bring a large saucepan or pot of water to a boil, add salt to taste and baby broccoli. As soon as water comes back to a boil (about 1 minute), use a skimmer to remove broccoli and transfer it to a bowl of cold water. Drain in a colander, then on paper towels. Cut stems away from florets and slice about 1/2 inch thick. Bring water back to a boil and cook soba. Drain and toss with 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
  • Place all ingredients within reach of your wok. Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added. Swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil and add tofu. Stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes, until it begins to color, and remove to a plate. Add remaining oil and garlic, ginger and chile. Stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds and add mushrooms. Stir-fry for 1 minute and add broccoli and the light parts of the scallions. Stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes. Add the noodles, tofu and the stock mixture. Reduce heat to medium and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes. Add cilantro and the dark green part of the scallions, stir-fry another 30 seconds to a minute, until well combined, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will help to ensure that the noodles don't stick together and that the vegetables cook evenly.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions: Be sure to not overcook the noodles, as they will continue to cook in the stir-fry.
  • Slice the vegetables thinly: This will help them to cook quickly and evenly.
  • Use a high heat setting: This will help to create a nice sear on the vegetables and tofu.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables and tofu in batches: This will help to prevent them from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of frying.
  • Add the noodles and sauce: Once the vegetables and tofu are cooked, add the noodles and sauce and stir-fry until heated through.
  • Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

This mushroom, tofu, and noodle stir-fry is a delicious and healthy meal that can be easily made at home. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetables and tofu, and it's also a good source of protein, carbohydrates, and fiber. The stir-fry can be served on its own or with a side of rice or noodles.
