Baked Tofu with Miso Sauce

Ingredients:

1 tbsp.            Miso of choice

2-3 tsp.           lemon juice

¼ -1/3 cup      water (enough to make sauce creamy)

1 lb.                tofu, firm or extra firm, cut into at least 8 slabs

1 tbsp.            sesame seeds, roasted Optional

¼ cup              scallions/chives, sliced Optional

  

Directions:

1.      Place miso and lemon in a bowl, and mix well. Add water and puree until sauce is smooth and creamy.

2.      Place tofu in a shallow baking dish, leaning the slices against each other so that they are slightly tilted ( I l l l l ) as illustrated.

3.      Spoon sauce over tofu to create a line of sauce down the center of each slice. About one inch on each side of the tofu slices should be left uncovered with sauce.

4.      Bake in a 350" F oven for about 15-20 minutes.

5.      Remove baking dish and sprinkle a few sesame seeds and a few scallions or chives on top of miso sauce. Place in oven again and bake 2 minutes. Remove and serve hot.
