Ingredients
Tofu:1 (14-ounce) package soft or silken tofu3 tablespoons soy sauce3 teaspoons vinegar or lemon juiceHollandaise Sauce:2 TBSP vegan margarine (calculated with Willow Run)3/4 cup + 1/4 cup unsweetened nondairy milk, divided1/4 cup lemon juice or 1 lemon, juiced (optional)2 TBSP nutritional yeast1/8 tsp sea salt1/8 tsp black pepperdash cayenne pepper or Cajun spicedash dry mustarddash turmeric1 tsp cornstarchSpinach:large handful spinach1/4 cup waterdash sea salt3 whole wheat vegan English muffinsdill weed, to taste
Directions:
1. Tofu: Cut the tofu into 3/4”- to 1”- thick slabs. (I was able to cut my tofu into 6 slabs.) Lift slabs onto a plate or large bowl. They will be delicate so be careful. Drizzle soy sauce and 3 teaspoons of vinegar or lemon juice on top. (I do mine one by one to give them each more flavor.) Set aside.
2. Hollandaise Sauce: In a small sauce pan, melt 2 tablespoons margarine. Stir in 3/4 cup nondairy milk, lemon juice (you may leave lemon out if you prefer the sauce to be more creamy and not have a kick), nutritional yeast, sea salt, pepper, cayenne or Cajun, dry mustard, and turmeric. Simmer. Mix the tablespoon of cornstarch with the soy milk you had set aside until all lumps are gone. Add this mixture to the sauce, and bring to boil. Keep stirring consistently as sauce will thicken quickly. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
3. Spinach:. In frying pan add spinach, water, and sea salt. Cover and steam for a minute or two. Or, put spinach in covered bowl in microwave for 45 seconds with water and sea salt. Keep warm.
4. Heat the tofu. Place tofu and some of the marinade in a frying pan and heat about a minute or two on each side. Caution when flipping as they are delicate.
5. Toast English muffins. Assemble by placing 1 slice of tofu on top of half of an English muffin. Cover tofu with a few leaves of spinach. Drizzle Hollandaise sauce all over spinach and tofu. Top with a pinch of fresh or dried dill weed.
This recipe will make 6 English muffins, or 3 servings if each person is served two.
Indulge and enjoy!!
