Sesame Crunched Tofu Miso Soup

Get your bliss notes

How are all your fabulous yogic bodies feeling after a little inspiration from yesterday’s post? I’m back today with a recipe that I’m sure you’ll love, regardless of whether you solely eat a plant based diet or not. I’m on a mission to blog more regularly; it turns out that I’ve fallen in love with sculpting this little corner of my world more than I ever thought I would. In fact, I’m putting a lot of conscious, positive energy and constructive thought into the realization that in due time, this is all I will need to do {in regards to sharing, supporting, and guiding people through the wellness adventure, not the part where I sit around and blog pictures of me snowboarding!}. I’m foreseeing an expiry date for Such.Different.Skies; as I conjure up a master plan which will culminate in a fresh new look, better accessibility, a touch of professionalism and a brand spanking, funky, suitable, new name with a new message. I’m ecstatic to share more recipes, inspiring notions and musing, how to’s and introducing you to guest bloggers, more regularly.

Anyway, I digress! Back to the food…

Sesame Crunched Tofu Miso Soup

Chop half a block of firm tofu into one inch squares {after pressing out the tofu water with some paper towel}.
Roll the tofu squares around in a few tablespoons of sesame seeds.
Heat 1 tablespoon on coconut oil in a pan.
Cook the tofu for a few minutes on each side until they’re golden and deliciously toasted looking.
Put to the side.
In a large pot, saute 1 roughly sliced onion, 2 chopped carrots, 2 red chillis and 1/2 cup dried shiitake mushrooms in 1 tbsp of coconut oil. Cook this for a few minutes until everything starts to soften and the onions become transparent. By now, amazing smells are wafting all through your house!
Add 3 liters of water to the pot and bring it to a bubbling simmer. Now add two heaped tablespoons of miso paste and 100ml of tamari {or soy sauce, or nama shoyu}. Turn the heat down and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
The simmered miso should look as though there’s a massive storm brewing in your pot, this is a good thing! Now, add a few teared up sheets of nori, a tablespoon of sesame oil, one head of bok choy {rinsed and roughly chopped} and a packet of udon noodes {or soba, or 100% buckwheat for gluten free}. After three minutes, served in a big bowl, garnish with some spring onion and your sesame crusted tofu, and dive into this!

Does that not look like healthful comfort in a bowl or what?
