Ingredients
- 1/4 pound firm or extra-firm plain tofu Add to list
- 2 tablespoons light, medium or dark miso, your choice Add to list
Preparation
Place tofu on a small plate. Pat dry with a paper towel. Spread a thin layer of miso on all surfaces except bottom. Cover with a small bowl (not touching tofu). Leave undisturbed. Scrape off miso from a small area after a few hours and sample. Try leaving it longer, deciding when it is cured to your liking.
Concept: The enzymes in the miso soften and flavor the tofu, making an interesting, spreadable cheese. To use, remove all miso first.
