Directions:
- Cook the soba in a big pot of rapidly boiling salted water just until tender - but about 20 seconds before the pasta is done cooking add the broccoli to the pot.
- You want it to barely cook. ( crip tendet the broccoli )
- Now drain and rinse under cold running water.
- Sprinkle with lemon zest and set aside.
- In the meantime make the dressing by combining the cilantro, garlic, cayenne, salt, and olive oil.
- Blend in a food processor or chop by hand.
- Taste, adjust for more salt if needed and set aside.
- Drain the tofu, pat it dry, and cut it into rectangles roughly the size of your thumb (1/2 inch thick and 1 inch long).
- Cook the tofu in a dry nonstick (or well-seasoned) skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes, until the pieces are browned on one side.
- Toss gently once or twice, then continue cooking for another minute or so, until the tofu is firm, golden, and bouncy.
- Remove from skillet, let cool a bit and if desired cut into matchsticks .
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the soba, broccoli and a couple big splashes of the cilantro dressing.
- Toss until well combined.
- Add the tofu and gently toss again, add more dressing and a couple pinches of salt if needed.
- Turn out onto platter and crown with a couple pinches of cayenne and a squeeze of lemon juice.
