VEGETARIAN TOFU AND NUT LOAF



Vegetarian Tofu and Nut Loaf image

This meatloaf has a lot of flavor and is very satisfying if you are craving protein. My husband and I, both vegetarians, made this for my brother, a hunter and meat-enthusiast, and he really liked it. The best thing about this meatloaf is the next day when I can have a cold meatloaf sandwich with mayonnaise.

HOLIDAY TOFU LOAF



Holiday Tofu Loaf image

My friends tell me to make this every holiday as the vegan main course. It looks really pretty and tastes great. You can adjust the oil/ Juice ratio to suit your fancy, just be sure you baste it throughout the cooking process.

Provided by beet_lust

Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 5h15m

Yield 1 loaf, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 lbs extra firm tofu
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon miso (optional)
1 teaspoon thai chili paste (optional) or 1 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes (optional)
3 teaspoons dried rosemary
3 teaspoons dried savory
3 teaspoons dried sage
1 teaspoon vegetable bouillon granules
3 tablespoons maple syrup or 3 tablespoons agave nectar
prepared stuffing, of your choice

Steps:

  • Drain off excess water from tofu. In a food processor or with a potato masher, crumble tofu avoiding any large lumps. Add the vegetable bullion along with 1 tsp each of the sage, rosemary and savory and 1 tbsp of the maple syrup, mix well.
  • Line a medium sized colander with cheese cloth, fill with tofu mixture. Cover the tofu mixture with a plate topped with a five lb weight (generally a few good sized tomato cans will do the trick). Leave tofu to press for at least three hours in the fridge.
  • In the mean time, prepare your stuffing.
  • Preheat Oven to 375 degrees.
  • Combine remaining ingredients (except for the stuffing) in a bowl, whisk together and set aside. After three hours remove the plate and weight from the tofu. Using a spoon, hollow out the tofu leaving a one inch shell. Fill shell with stuffing (Don't Overfill! The stuffing should only be inside the shell, not spilling over onto the sides) and cover with the extracted tofu. Pack the tofu layer down, then turn colander right-side up onto a deep baking sheet.
  • Cover tofu loaf with half of the sauce mixture, being sure to spread the mustard grains evenly over the surface. Bake until golden brown (about 1 hour 15 min), basting with remaining mixture after the first 45 minutes.
