Tofu With Miso Peanut Sauce image

Miso, a paste made from fermented soybeans and grains, has a rich, salty and complex flavor. It's high in B vitamins, protein and manganese, as well as many phytonutrients that are believed to have antioxidant properties. Pomegranate molasses, though a Middle Eastern food, is a nice complement in this recipe. You can find miso at Whole Foods and at markets that sell Japanese foods, as well as at some Asian markets. You can find pomegranate molasses at Middle Eastern markets. This makes enough sauce for a pound of tofu.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best tofu dish he's ever had. I would make it again, but with less chili pepper.

The miso-peanut sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise this recipe was really good. I would make it again with less sugar in the sauce.
