Roll Assembly

Soy Gingerette

Method

Prepare Tofu

  1. 1

    Marinate Tofu

    Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into thin slices. In a bowl, combine minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Marinate the tofu slices in this mixture for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook Tofu

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tofu slices and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

Make Vegetable Escabeche

  1. 3

    Pickle Vegetables

    In a saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil. Add the julienned carrots, red bell pepper, and red onion. Remove from heat and let cool. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.

Make Soy Gingerette

  1. 4

    Prepare Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Set aside.

Assemble Rolls

  1. 5

    Roll It Up

    Cook sushi rice according to package instructions. Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo mat, spread a thin layer of sushi rice over it, leaving a small edge at the top. Place cooked tofu, vegetable escabeche, and avocado slices on top of the rice. Roll tightly and slice into pieces. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the rolls with soy sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy your Tofu-Licious Roll!
