Name: Nori-Wrapped Crispy Tofu Batons with Miso-Bonito Butter & Daikon Greens
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 18 min
Total time: 33 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 1 block (14 oz) extra-firm tofu, pressed for 15 minutes; 3 tbsp cornstarch; ½ tsp sea salt; white pepper to taste; 3 tbsp neutral oil (for frying); 2 sheets nori, cut into ½-inch-wide strips; 3 tbsp unsalted butter; 1 tbsp red miso paste; 2 tsp bonito flakes; 1 tbsp rice vinegar; 1 cup daikon greens or mizuna, loosely packed; fleur de sel to finish

Pressed extra-firm tofu cut into batons, lightly dusted and pan-fried until all sides are golden and crispy, then wrapped in a thin band of nori. Served with a Japanese-inflected brown butter sauce infused with red miso and bonito flakes, garnished with spicy daikon greens or mizuna—a textural and umami-forward appetizer that surprises and satisfies.
