STEPS

1

Line a medium-sized colander with a cheesecloth or clean dish towel. Place crumbled tofu in the colander, cover with another cheesecloth, and refrigerate with a weight on top for 2-3 hours.

2

In a large pan, sauté onion, celery, and mushrooms in 2 tablespoons sesame oil until tender. Add garlic, sage, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup tamari. Cook for 5 minutes. Add prepared herb stuffing and mix well. Remove from heat.

3

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a cookie sheet.

4

Combine 1/2 cup sesame oil, 1/4 cup tamari, miso paste, orange juice, mustard, and orange zest in a small bowl. Mix well.

5

Hollow out tofu lining the colander and reserve scooped tofu. Brush the inside with miso mixture and fill with prepared stuffing. Place reserved tofu on top, press firmly, and turn out onto a greased cookie sheet.

6

Shape the tofu turkey into an oval and top with rosemary sprigs. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour at 400°F.

7

Remove foil, baste with remaining tamari-oil sauce, and bake uncovered for another hour or until golden brown.

8

Brush with leftover tamari-oil mix before serving on a platter.
