The sun is shining and the grill is full of gas, and to copy our friends, we have a second tank of gas ready to go for when we runout mid-cook again. I have been waiting not so patiently for it to get warm so I could start going through recipes that require the grill. Today I opted for tofu skewers - tofu two nights in a row is a really big stretch for Eric, but I did get the okay and he actually said it sounded good. Shiitake mushrooms are about the only mushrooms I tolerate and I thought it sounded good to grill them. Overall, the dish was fine but not one of our favorites. If you're a true vegetarian this is a phenomenal dish. The sauce was fine but maybe a little too lemony to consider it Japanese to me.





Things I learned from this recipe:
Somen noodles are a fine replacement for soba if you're out. Wheat pasta would probably be sufficient substitute as well.
Would I make this recipe again?:
Probably not.
