Directions

For marinating the tofu:

Dice tofu into bite sized cubes .

Add tea, ginger, green onions, chili and soy sauce together in a large bowl, and whisk until well blended.

Set aside half of the marinade in a separate bowl for the dressing.

Place the tofu to the first bowl of marinade, ensuring all pieces are covered, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

For the dressing:

Add the soy sauce, sesame oil and rice wine vinegar into the reserved marinade dressing.

Whisk to well blend and set aside.

For the Green Tea Tofu Soba Salad:

Set a large pot over medium high heat and cook the soba noodles according to package instructions.

When the noodles are done, drain, rinse and set aside to cool.

Once the noodles are cool, mix together the soba, bell pepper, cabbage, sprouts and sesame seeds together in a large bowl.

Add the marinated tofu and season with the dressing, reserving a few tablespoons of dressing for serving.

Use your hands or wooden spoon to gently toss the salad until well mixed and evenly coated.

Divide among 4 plates.

Drizzle with extra dressing and sprinkle the chopped chili, green onions and cilantro on top.

Serve.
