Chinese Noodles
- 1 cup hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon lower sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 8 ounces firm tofu in 1/2" cubes
- 8 ounces angel hair pasta or thin spaghetti
- 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
- 1 cup snow peas in 1" pieces
- 1 cup broccoli florets small
- 1 cup carrots in thin half rounds
- 1 cup onion in thin half rounds
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds optional garnish
- Make marinade: In a small bowl whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and rice vinegar. Reserve 2 Tbs of the marinade; pour the rest over the tofu and stir to coat.
- Put the tofu cubes on a nonstick baking sheet and bake at 350 for 20 minutes, turning once. While the tofu bakes, prepare the pasta and vegetables, as follows.
- Break the pasta in half and cook according to package directions. When done, drain the pasta and toss it with the sesame oil. Add the reserved marinade and toss again.
- Saute the snow peas, broccoli, carrots and onion in a nonstick skillet (with a little water to prevent sticking) until crisp tender. Add them along with the baked tofu to the pasta and gently mix. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve hot or cold.
- *Chinese hoisin sauce, a soybean-based cooking and dipping sauce, is available in Asian groceries and many supermarkets.
