Holiday Roast Roll

 

From Natural Land (http://www.naturalland.com/cv/soy/holrec.htm)

 

 

2 pounds firm tofu

4 tablespoons arrowroot or cornstarch

2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

2 teaspoons powdered agar

1-1/2 teaspoons onion powder

1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

3-1/2 cups Herbed Bread Stuffing

You'll also need:

 

Plastic wrap

Aluminum Foil

1. In a food processor, puree all roll ingredients, stopping to scrape

down the sides, as necessary. Mixture will be fairly stiff; don't add

liquid. Preheat oven to 350°.

 

2. On a work surface, lay down 2 16-inch long pieces of plastic wrap,

over-lapping them about 2 inches, lengthwise. Spoon tofu mixture onto

waxed paper and spread out into an 8 x 12-inch rectangle, about 1/2-inch

thick. Make sure thickness is even all around.

 

3. Lay a third sheet of plastic wrap on the work surface, and on it

mound the stuffing, forming it into a roll about 11 inches long.

Carefully transfer the roll to the center of the tofu rectangle.

 

4. Now is the time to summon your assistant. With one person on each end

of the plastic wrap, bring the two sides together. The tofu will meet

over the top of the stuffing roll, encasing it. Gently press together

and smooth out any places, including ends, that have stuffing showing

through; twist ends to seal.

 

5. Securely wrap roll in 2 layers of aluminum foil, making sure no

plastic is exposed. Place on baking sheet and bake for 1 hour and 15

minutes. Remove from oven, let cool in wrappings, and refrigerate until

1 hour before serving.

 

6. To serve, carefully remove aluminum foil and plastic; wrap with fresh

foil, place on a baking sheet, and bake at 350° until heated through,

about 30 minutes. Remove foil and transfer roll to a serving platter;

decorating as desired.

 

Makes 6 servings.

This sounds wonderful - and we'd like photos of people making it, I think. If

successful, it could become an Olympic Event - Co-ordinated TofuRoast

Rolling.

 

Seriously, it is clever - and tasty ;=) thanks!

 

Best,
