GINGERBREAD MADE WITH TOFU

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F; spray a nonstick 8-inch square pan with nonstick spray.
• Beat tofu, molasses, sugar and margarine/butter in a blender till smooth.
• Combine flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon and cloves in a medium bowl. Add flour mixture to tofu mixture and beat until combined. Pour mixture into prepared pan.
• Bake about 35 minutes or until top springs back when lightly pressed. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove from pan and cut in 16 (2 inch) squares.
• NOTE: DO NOT USE anything but soft tofu. The other kind comes out lumpy. Drain the tofu, but don't squeeze it. I put everything in my blender -- first blending the tofu and adding the ingredients in step 2. Then I transfer it into the bowl of dry ingredients and use an electric mixer. Do not blend everything together in the blender or it comes out too runny. The batter should not be thick and heavy, but more like pudding. Enjoy the delectable fragrance while this cooks!

SOBA AND TOFU IN GINGER BROTH

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine scallion whites, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and 8 cups water; bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to a simmer. Cook until broth is flavorful, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a grill pan over medium-high; lightly oil. Slice tofu in half; season with salt and pepper. Add tofu pieces to hot pan and cook, turning to grill all sides, about 15 minutes total. Remove from pan; once cool enough to handle, cut into small cubes.
• Strain aromatics from broth with a slotted spoon; discard solids. Bring broth to a boil; add soy sauce and soba. Cook soba according to package directions. About 1 minute before the end of cooking, add bok choy, snow peas, and chile. Cook until veggies are tender-crisp. Add more soy sauce, if desired. To serve, place noodles in bowl with broth; top with tofu, scallion greens, and sesame seeds.

TOFU WITH GINGER-CILANTRO SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium. In a food processor, combine cilantro, 1/4 cup oil, jalapeno, ginger, lime juice, and scallions. Blend until smooth; season with salt and pepper.
• Brush tofu with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Lightly brush grates with oil. Grill tofu, turning halfway through, until charred in spots, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from grill and brush with ginger-cilantro sauce. Serve with remaining sauce on the side.
