Notes

Think of tofu scramble the same way you would an omelette. The base stays simple, and flavor comes from what you add.

Easy additions include:

  • Scallions or green onions

  • Onion or shallot

  • Mushrooms

  • Cherry tomatoes

  • Bell peppers

  • Spinach or greens

  • Chili or red pepper flakes

You can sauté vegetables first in the pan, then add the tofu, or stir them in during the last few minutes of cooking. Soy sauce or ponzu replaces salt and adds depth, so no additional seasoning is needed.
