Dressing

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon red wine

salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

* * * * *

4 cups baby salad greens

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

16 ounces soft tofu -- lightly squeezed

1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

 

To make the dressing, whisk together the balsamic and wine vinegars with the

wine and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Whisk in the oil and set

aside.

 

Arrange 1 cup of the salad greens in the center of four dinner plates and set

aside.

 

Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu, breaking

it up until it resembles scrambled eggs. Mix in the soy sauce, turmeric, basil,

oregano, and thyme, stirring until the herbs and seasonings are evenly

distributed and the tofu smells fragrant, about 2 minutes.

 

Place a quarter of the scrambled herbed tofu over the greens on the prepared

plates, and spoon a quarter of the dressing over each serving of the salad.

Serve immediately.

NOTES : Chef Cesar Casella, of the restaurant Beppe in New York City, prepares

this warm salad with gently scrambled eggs. Using tofu in their place proves

how well a recipe can be translated into soy. I serve this salad as a main

course for brunch. It is such a simple dish to make that I sometimes make up

half the recipe for lunch when I am working at home.
