Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 ounces super firm tofu, vacuum packed
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon mellow white miso
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Pat the tofu dry with paper towels.
  2. Using a vegetable peeler, slice the tofu into thin pieces, allowing for some smaller pieces to fall away.
  3. In a large pan, combine vegetable broth, soy sauce, mellow white miso, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
  4. Stir the mixture well to combine all ingredients.
  5. Add the sliced tofu to the pan, ensuring the pieces are covered as much as possible by the liquid.
  6. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 30 minutes until the liquid is absorbed, making sure it bubbles but doesn't boil violently.
  7. Let it cool slightly or serve warm on sandwiches with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Feel free to experiment with additional spices like black pepper for extra flavor.
Tofu can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week after cooking for easy meal prep.
