Spicy Miso Braised Tofu

Savory, slightly sweet, tangy, creamy, and aromatic, this elegant yet easy tofu braise includes every major flavor component. Sweet white miso adds body and a sweet savory depth while sambal oelek contributes tangy, bright heat. Winter citrus adds freshness, and coriander seed mirrors the floral brightness of the orange.

Ingredients:

  • Two 12-ounce blocks extra-firm tofu, drained
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons sweet white rice flour (mochiko)
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, from two large oranges
  • 1 tablespoon sambal oelek chili paste
  • Neutral oil for frying, like grapeseed oil
  • One 1 1/2 by 1 1/2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • Orange slices, optional
  • Fresh cilantro sprigs
