- 1 block firm tofu
- ½ teaspoon ginger powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free tamari
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Broth Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon ginger minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth low sodium
- 2 teaspoons gluten-free tamari
Toppings and Noodles
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms washed and sliced
- 1 bunch bok choy chopped
- 1 cup sprouts washed and drained
- 1 12-ounce pack gluten-free fresh noodles or rice noodles or 2 packs dried ramen noodles
- 2 to 3 tablespoons green onions chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Drain and press tofu using EZ Tofu Press to remove any excess water.
- In a medium bowl, mix ginger powder, garlic powder, gluten-free tamari, and sriracha together.
- Cut tofu into medium cubes, and place in marinade. Toss gently. Leave aside for 30 minutes.
- When ready to cook, heat nonstick skillet over medium heat with vegetable oil. Cook marinated tofu on each side until golden and crispy.
- Heat a saucepan over medium heat with sesame oil. Cook garlic and ginger for a few seconds. Add broth and gluten-free tamari. Increase to high heat, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Heat a nonstick skillet with oil. Cook mushrooms and bok choy until tender. Divide the noodles between serving bowls.
- To assemble the soup, add noodles to the bowl, and top with broth. Add crispy tofu, and all your veggies.
Notes
- Pressing tofu is important for tofu soup because it removes extra moisture. Less moisture helps the tofu brown better in the skillet and gives the finished soup better texture.
- If using dried ramen noodles, boil them according to the package directions before adding them to the broth.
