Tofu Dengaku is a classic Japanese dish featuring grilled tofu coated in a sweet and savory miso glaze. This easy-to-make recipe offers a unique blend of flavors and textures that are both satisfying and nutritious. Perfect as an appetizer or a main course, Tofu Dengaku promises to bring a touch of traditional Japanese cuisine to your table.
- For best results, use firm or extra-firm tofu to ensure it holds its shape during grilling.
- Press the tofu in advance to remove excess moisture. This can be done by placing the tofu between paper towels and putting a weight on top for about 20-30 minutes.
- If you don't have sesame butter, you can substitute it with tahini or peanut butter for a slightly different flavor profile.
- Use a brush to evenly coat the tofu with the miso glaze for a consistent flavor in every bite.
- Grill the tofu over medium heat to achieve a nice, caramelized crust without burning the miso glaze.
Tofu Dengaku is not only flavorful but also incredibly versatile. Serve it as a savory appetizer, pair it with rice or noodles for a more substantial meal, or enjoy it on its own as a healthy snack. With this simple recipe and a few handy tips, you'll be able to recreate this delicious Japanese dish in the comfort of your own home.
