The soup was good but very peppery and gave me the hiccups (why is that?) The omelet... well let's just say I am not a fan of puffy omelets. And the fruit salad was frozen solid. Soo...

For dinner, I made sautéed tofu in miso-ginger sauce. I always improvise the sauce but basically, it's a mix of white miso, pepper sauce, maple syrup, mirin, rice vinegar and fresh ginger. You dredge the tofu in rice flour (it prevents it from becoming dry and hard) and sautée it in a tiny bit of oil, then add the sauce and a little bit of water.

Don't let it stand in the pan - just heat it through. Otherwise, it'll bake and stick to the pan.
