I used momen-dofu (cotton tofu) which is pretty filling! The seasonings work up the appetite!
It's a dish to go with sake or beer, too :D
Please try it out!

ReplyDeletehi grub,
ReplyDeleteyeah, there are many kinds! i like momen-dofu because it is firm and feel like i am eating it. kinugoshi-dofu (silk tofu) is too smooth so i don't eat it that often... but i ate it a lot when i had a wisdom tooth extraction. lol
