Vietnamese-style rolls are a great addition to your summer repertoire: They require very little cooking and can be assembled at the kitchen table or out on the patio. Thanks to bean thread noodles and baked tofu, they make a substantial meal, but pickled vegetables and a trio of herbs keep each sauce-dipped bite light and cool.

4 romaine leaves, each torn into 4 pieces
10 ounces packaged baked tofu, cut into 3- by 1/3-inch sticks

Great sauce, can make it while the pasta is cooking. An adaptation of a recipe from the John Robbins's "May All Be Fed".

Provided by basia1

Categories     Sauces

Time 4m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 lb firm tofu
3/4 cup vegetable stock or 3/4 cup water
1/4 cup canola oil or 1/4 cup safflower oil
2 tablespoons tamari
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil (1 tsp dried)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic (peeled)

Steps:

  • Put all ingredients into a blender/food processor.
  • Use to top pasta.

Tips:

  • Use extra-firm tofu: This type of tofu holds its shape better and absorbs more flavor from the sauce.
  • Press the tofu before cooking: This helps to remove excess moisture, resulting in a firmer, more flavorful tofu.
  • Marinate the tofu: Marinating the tofu in a flavorful sauce or marinade before cooking helps to infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the tofu over medium heat: This prevents the tofu from burning or becoming too crispy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This adds color, texture, and flavor to the dish.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of soy sauce, rice vinegar, or other seasonings to suit your own taste.
  • Serve the tofu with rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish: This makes a complete and satisfying meal.

Conclusion:

This savory tofu sauce is a delicious and versatile way to enjoy tofu. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, or for a more special occasion. With its bold flavors and simple ingredients, this sauce is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
