Ingredients:
1 (14ounce) package firm tofu |
1 (1 pound) skinless, boneless salmon fillet |
1/4 cup light soy sauce |
1/4 cup mirin |
1/4 cup unseasoned rice wine vinegar |
1 (1/2inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated finely |
freshly ground black pepper |
1 pound fresh spinach, washed and stemmed |
3 scallions, washed and sliced thinly on the bias, for garnish |
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Cut tofu into four slabs and place on a thin cotton towel or piece of cheesecloth to drain. Slice salmon fillet into eight slices, each about 3/4inch thick. Place two salmon strips skin side together in a round, yin yang patty and place on top of each piece of tofu. 2. In a small saucepan, bring to a boil the soy sauce, mirin, rice wine vinegar, ginger, and black pepper. Remove from heat and reserve. 3. Place a rack above boiling water in a large pot with a cover. Place tofu/salmon on rack in steamer, surround it with the spinach, and steam, covered, for 4 to 6 minutes. 4. To serve, place a tofu/salmon in each of four shallow bowls and arrange hot spinach around edges. Pour soy mixture over each and sprinkle with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately. |
