Simple Mushroom Stock with Tofu

serves 4-6

2 lbs crimini mushrooms, washed and trimmed

16oz extra firm tofu, diced

8 oz broccoli sprouts

3 serrano peppers, sliced thin

6 radishes, sliced thin

2 limes, cut in wedges

4 oz sriracha chili sauce, to serve

2 tbs olive oil, divided

salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, toss mushrooms with olive oil, salt and pepper. Spread mushrooms out on a large baking sheet and roast until browned, about 20 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a large dutch oven and add cold water, covering mushrooms by about 2 inches.

Bring to a boil over high heat, season with salt and pepper, and reduce to a simmer for about 1 hour. Strain broth through a fine-mesh sieve, making sure to press solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard solids and return broth to a boil. Cook for 20 minutes, or until reduced by 1/3rd. Keep warm and set aside.

Heat remaining oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When shimmering, add tofu and saute until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip tofu and brown opposite side, an additional 5 minutes.

To serve, combine mushroom broth, tofu, radish, serrano peppers, sprouts, siracha sauce and lime
