Ingredients needed 3 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Soak the burdock root in saltwater immediately after slicing to prevent enzymatic browning caused by starch oxidation.
- If you don’t properly remove moisture from the tofu, the sauce will become overly thick and sticky—make sure to drain all excess liquid after microwaving.
- Lemon juice cuts through the richness of the tofu and perilla seeds, adding a refreshing finish. If unavailable, substitute with regular vinegar.
- This vegan and diet-friendly recipe uses no mayonnaise at all, offering a light, clean taste perfect for everyday home meals.
Recommended for
- Those seeking a healthier alternative to mayonnaise due to its high calorie content.
- People who enjoy the crisp texture of burdock root paired with the smooth, nutty flavor of perilla seeds.
