Miso-Roasted Tofu

A savory glaze pulls double duty here as a topping for the tofu and a flavorful sauce for the noodles. A generous helping of furikake adds delicious depth to the finished dish.
Smarts: Furikake is a Japanese seasoning consisting mainly of crumbled nori and sesame seeds. Look for it in the global foods section of the supermarket, at specialty stores, or online. (Some versions may contain dried fish, so check the label to make sure it complies with your dietary needs.)

Make

  1. Heat oven to 400F / 204C degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Heat a pot of salted water for noodles. Cook noodles according to package directions (soba noodles can cook quickly, so watch them closely to prevent overcooking). Drain well.

  3. Season tofu steaks with some salt and pepper and spread out in an even layer on the baking sheet. Brush with the first portion of miso-soy glaze (portion for tofu).

  4. Transfer baking sheet to the oven and roast until tofu is heated through and glaze has thickened, ~15 minutes. Halfway through cooking, brush tofu with second portion of glaze (portion for tofu).

  5. While tofu roasts, heat a wok or saute pan with cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add broccoli and stir fry until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Fold in garlic and white parts of green onions and continue to cook until broccoli is bright green and as tender as you like it, 2 to 4 minutes more (you can add a splash of water to the pan if you want to lightly steam it).

  6. Fold in noodles and miso-soy glaze (portion for noodles) and stir fry for 1 to 2 minutes more, or until everything is well-combined and heated through (be careful not to overcook the noodles).

  7. Remove from heat and fold in furikake.
