Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound tempeh -- sliced into

- bite-sized pieces

4 cups water

3 tablespoons naturally brewed soy sauce

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic -- to 4 cloves

- lightly bruised with the side of a knife

2 slices gingerroot -- to 3

- quarter-sized

1 sprig fresh rosemary

1 sprig fresh thyme

thinly sliced scallion -- green and white part

- for garnish

 

Yield 4 to 6 servings.

 

This simple preparation is one of my favorite ways to enjoy tempeh.

It is an excellent way to begin including this " other white meat "

into your daily diet. Feel free to vary the herbs and add a few of

your favorite chopped seasonal vegetables and some leftover grains or

pasta to the broth. It will make a terrific one-pot meal!

 

 

In a saucepan over high heat, combine the tempeh, water, soy sauce,

oil, garlic, ginger, rosemary,a nd thyme. Bring to a boil.

 

Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Remove

the herb sprigs and serve sprinkled with scallion.
