Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 3 servings

  • 12 ounces extra-firm tofu

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions

  • 3 tablespoons white miso paste

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable stock base

  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1 1/2 cups cooked rice vermicelli noodles 

  • 1 cup thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms

  • 1 cup thinly sliced baby bok choy

Directions

  1. Cut tofu into 1/2-inch planks. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tofu, turning halfway through, until golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Cut tofu into cubes.

  2. Stir together green onions, miso paste, garlic, stock base, and ginger in a small bowl. Divide evenly among 3 microwave-safe pint-size canning jars with lids.

  3. Layer evenly with rice vermicelli noodles, tofu, mushrooms, and bok choy. Chill, covered, up to 5 days. To serve, see “Heat and Eat”. Garnish with sliced green onions.

    Heat and Eat

    Let jar stand at room temperature 10 minutes or run under warm water 1 minute. Add water (about 1 cup) to ingredients in jar until nearly full. Microwave without the lid for 3 minutes. Carefully screw on lid (jar will be very hot). Let stand 5 minutes. Invert jar to combine ingredients. Eat out of jar or transfer to a bowl to serve.
