Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet yuba (10g dry or 60g fresh)
- 1/4 cup silken tofu (60g)
- 3 tbsp liquid of choice (ie. cashew milk, soy milk, oat milk or water 45g)
- 2 tbsp chickpea, white rice or brown rice flour (20g // see blogpost for textural difference)
- 1 tsp soy sauce (5g // tamari for gluten free)
- 1/2 tsp kombu dashi granules (or 1 tsp miso paste)
- 2 tsp mirin (10g)
- 2 tsp sugar (10g)
- 1/8 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp black salt
- pepper to taste
Optional Add-ins
- 2 tsp nutritional yeast (8g)
- 1 tbsp vegan kewpie mayo (makes it extra creamy)
- pinch of turmeric (for colour)
Garnish
- kizami nori (cut up seaweed)
- soy sauce
- scallions
- sesame seeds
Instructions
- If using dried yuba, rehydrate in hot water for 3-5 minutes. Roughly tear the yuba into smaller pieces, about a palm sized.
- Blend the silken tofu, soy milk, flour, soy sauce, dashi, mirin, sugar and baking powder until smooth. This will be our eggy sauce that also scrambles.
- Heat a pan over medium heat and add oil or vegan butter. Add the silken tofu mixture and place the yuba pieces on top. Let it cook for about 1-2 minutes without touching it. Once the edges start to look cooked, use chopsticks or a spatula and push the edges toward the middle. Reduce the heat to low and cook for another 30-45 seconds, pushing the egg mixture every few seconds until desired consistency. Using your fingers, pinch the black salt on top.
- Remove from stove and serve over rice or on the side. Enjoy!
