Typo. Tofu recipe.

[resonant]

Typo hall of fame: Self-pimposed.

Also, in my search for good tofu dishes, I discovered

Lemon Tahini Marinated Tofu

Finely chop a stalk of celery, half a small onion, and a very small piece of gingerroot (peeled) and put them in the blender.

Add 1/4 cup tahini*, 1/4 cup tamari sauce**, 1/3 cup lemon juice, and 2 teaspoons pepper. Puree all that until it's smooth.

With the blender still running, add 1/2 cup of oil and 1/4 cup of water.

This makes Lemon Tahini Dressing***, a marvelous (though rather salty) salad dressing. Now pour some over some cubes of tofu and marinate them for half an hour, and you have the thing that I planned to put on a salad, but instead ate all of right out of the bowl.



* tahini: like peanut butter only with sesame seeds. Some grocery stores put it in the natural foods section, others in the international section. It's dry and slightly bitter, and is also good for putting in humus.

** tamari: well, it's soy sauce, but it's somehow different from soy sauce. But if you don't have any, you can substitute soy sauce.

*** which I got from The Irregardless Cafe in Raleigh, N.C., which you already know about if you're in the neighborhood. Order the open-face sandwich and iced Red Zinger for me. I think Red's sister may still be one of the chefs.****

****I should look at timian's source file and figure out how to do actual superscript numbers.

Edited to add: I went home, I tried it, I fell in love! You have no idea how happy a new food addiction makes me ... thank you!
