SOFT (SILKEN) TOFU SCRAMBLE - SARAH'S VEGAN KITCHEN



Soft (Silken) Tofu Scramble - Sarah's Vegan Kitchen image

A new variation of one of my go-to breakfasts! This time, we use soft or silken tofu for a fluffy texture more similar to real scrambled eggs.

Provided by Sarah Sullivan

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 oz) container soft or silken tofu
1 heaping tablespoon nutritional yeast
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
pinch of turmeric, optional, for color
¾ cup sautéed veggies*
pinch of black salt, optional, to garnish
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Very carefully remove tofu from packaging without breaking apart. Cut tofu into roughly 1″ cubes. This may seem large, but the tofu will shrink considerably as it cooks, and it will inevitably break apart a bit as you stir it due to its delicate texture, so it will resemble more of a scramble once you’re done. The key for this recipe is to be gentle while handling and stirring the tofu so that it doesn’t get too mushy.
  • Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. We *really* don’t want our tofu to stick, so if the pan’s nonstick coating is a little old or worn, add a few teaspoons of oil for extra insurance. Carefully transfer tofu to preheated pan. Allow the first side of the tofu cubes to cook undisturbed until a light golden brown “skin” has formed. This may take quite awhile – up to 3-5 full minutes depending on your tofu. There is a lot of excess water we have to cook off before the tofu will brown.
  • Once the first side is browned, very gently flip tofu with a spatula, and continue to cook, flipping carefully every minute or so until roughly all sides have lightly browned. Reduce the heat to medium once most of the extra liquid has cooked off. Tofu will shrink considerably as it cooks.
  • Once the tofu has been browned evenly, stir in nutritional yeast, onion and garlic powder, and a pinch of kosher salt and pepper. Stir in your cooked veggies of choice to heat through, along with any other add-ins such as vegan sausage, cheese, etc. (I highly recommend cooking your veggies separately, setting them aside and adding them to the tofu at this stage. If you try to cook the veggies in the pan alongside the soft tofu before it has developed a skin, there’s a good chance your tofu will turn to mush from all the extra stirring.)
  • Stir in a generous sprinkle of black salt at the last minute before serving if desired. (The flavor/aroma of the black salt tends to diminish if it’s cooked a lot.)

SILKEN TOFU WITH SPICY SOY DRESSING RECIPE - NYT COOKING
This recipe is inspired by the many cold silken tofu dishes from East Asia, like Japanese hiyayakko and Chinese liangban tofu. This no-cook dish is a handy one to have up your sleeve, especially for warm evenings when the desire to cook is nonexistent. Silky soft tofu is draped in a punchy soy dressing, creating a lively dish with little effort. The tofu is ideally served cold, but 10 minutes at room temperature can take the edge off. Make it your own with other fresh herbs such as Thai basil, mint or shiso leaves, or add crunch with fried shallots or roasted peanuts. A salty, fermented element like kimchi, pickled radish or ja choi, also known as zha cai, a Sichuan pickled mustard root, would work well, too. One block of silken tofu is usually enough to feed two people, but for a more substantial meal, serve it with hot rice or noodles to create a pleasing contrast of temperatures.

  • Carefully drain the liquid from the package of tofu, and gently tip the block onto a kitchen towel. (Try to keep the block in one piece, if possible, but don’t worry if it falls apart; it will still taste great.) Pat with another clean kitchen towel, removing as much liquid as possible. Transfer the blocks to one large plate or two smaller plates, and spoon the soy dressing over the top until the tofu is completely covered. Top with scallions and cilantro leaves, and eat on its own or with rice or noodles on the side.

The recipe will work but it might not be as silky and delicate.
