RESTAURANT-STYLE TOFU LETTUCE WRAPS
I looked high and low for tofu lettuce wrap recipes and could not find one single recipe on the web that hit the spot, so I made up my own. This is delicious and, although it takes a little preparation, it's totally worth it. Serve with some Chinese-style hot mustard.

Steps:
- Place tofu in an airtight container and freeze for 24 hours. Remove from container and thaw, at least 3 hours. Squeeze out excess moisture with your hands or place tofu on paper towels and lay a heavy cutting board on top.
- Whisk 1/4 cup soy sauce, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, and sherry together in a bowl to make the cooking sauce.
- Whisk water, white sugar, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar, and chile-garlic sauce together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch at a time and whisk until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Store special sauce in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Chop tofu roughly into small pieces. Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add tofu when oil is hot; stir-fry until tofu is browned, about 5 minutes. Set tofu aside in a bowl.
- Heat remaining sesame oil in the skillet over high heat. Saute onion and garlic until browned and any excess liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, water chestnuts, and bamboo shoots. Cook over medium-high heat until any excess liquid is absorbed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add cooking sauce to the skillet and stir. Add tofu to the skillet. Cook until sauce is thickened and all vegetables are tender, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from heat.
- Place radicchio, bean sprouts, noodles, peanuts, carrot, and green onions in individual bowls. Place tofu mixture in a serving bowl. Arrange lettuce leaves on a large plate. Put special sauce in a serving bowl with a spoon. Assemble by placing 2 to 3 lettuce leaves on a plate, topping with tofu and garnishes, and drizzling the special sauce on top.

Steps:
- Remove the tofu from its packaging and drain. Wrap tofu in a kitchen towel and find a heavy object to place on top of tofu, leave it there for 10-20 minutes, until tofu feels more tender.
- Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the water, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, sriracha, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, and scallions, and stir. Set ½ cup (120 ml) of the sauce aside.
- Crumble the tofu into the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- In a medium wok or skillet over medium heat, add the sesame oil and onion, and cook 3 minutes, until onions are translucent. Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender.
- Add the marinated tofu to the pan and cook until the majority of marinade cooks off. Add the water chestnuts and scallions. Pour in the reserved sauce. Toss to coat and cook until just heated through. Transfer the tofu mixture to a medium bowl.
- Heat the canola oil in the same pan over high heat until a drop of water sizzles when flicked onto the oil. Fry the rice noodles for about 30 seconds, until puffed up. Transfer the fried noodles to paper towels to drain.
- Slice the core off the head of lettuce and separate into individual leaves.
- Serve with leaves of lettuce, rice noodles, and drizzle remaining sauce over top.
- Enjoy!

THAI TOFU LETTUCE WRAPS
I couldn't keep this yummy, light lunch under wraps. The original recipe featured chicken, but I modified it for my vegetarian husband. Now both of us prefer the Thai-style tofu version. -Laureen Pittman, Riverside, California
