TOFU BOURGUIGNON RECIPE:
1 pound frozen tofu, thawed
1¼ cups red wine
5 tablespoons mirin
5 tablespoons soy sauce
2 to 3 tablespoons medium or light miso
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar
½ cup unbleached white or whole wheat pastry flour
3 tablespoons oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
12 ounces mushrooms, sliced
¾ cup frozen peas
Approximately ⅔ cup rich soy cream or soymilk
1 to 2 teaspoons arrowroot, kuzu, . or cornstarch to thicken, if necessary
After the tofu has thawed, press it gently between both hands to extract as much water as possible without breaking or tearing it. Cut it into slices about ⅜ inch thick x 1 inch x 1¼ inches. Mix the red wine, mirin, soy sauce, miso, garlic, and vinegar, and marinate the tofu in this mixture for at least 30 minutes (several hours if desired). Remove the tofu one piece at a time, and squeeze lightly to remove some, but not all, of the marinade it absorbed. If you press too hard, you will end up with a tasteless piece of tofu; if you don't extract any of the marinade, the tofu may taste too "winey." Measure the remaining marinade after doing this for all the pieces-you should have about 1½ cups. If you have too much, sprinkle some back onto the tofu; if not enough, squeeze the tofu a bit more. Flour the tofu lightly and sauté in 2 tablespoons of the oil on both sides until brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel, and add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the chopped onion, cover, and sauté until tender, then add the mushrooms and cover again. Cook over low heat about 5 minutes until the mushroom juices begin to ooze out. Add the remaining marinade and simmer for another 10 minutes. Add the green peas and cook for another 2 minutes. Now add the soymilk or soy cream, and cook another minute or two to allow the flavors to blend. It should thicken, but if it does not, dissolve a teaspoon or two of arrowroot or kuzu in a little more milk and add to it, stirring constantly, until the sauce has some body. Add the tofu pieces, heat briefly until hot, then check the flavor, adjusting the seasonings and adding more soy cream, if necessary. Serve immediately over pasta, such as fettuccine cooked al dente.
A powerful discourse. So much to think about and so much I had never even thought about. Dr Harper is an influential educator. Miyoko is opening up a whole other sphere for those of us who have much to learn. Thank you, Both.
Thank you for raising our awareness. Always enjoy Myoko’s videos. BTW, Trader Joe’s Soy Milk is just Organic Soy Beans and Water.
What a great guest! I loved hearing her perspectives on veganism in The African American Community!
Everybody on the planet eats !!!What a powerful dynamic !
Excellent conversation. Thank you, Dr. A Breeze Harper and Miyoko Schinner.
What a great guest Miyoko
Great convo. Even on my non vegan days I did my best to buy fair trade. I stopped buying Tyson chicken when a 60 minutes exposé reported on the abuse of people in the system. I appreciate knowing of the food and vegan concerns that impact black communities. I am a more knowledgeable voter from this convo. Thank you. The history of okra is very interesting.
Great meal with meaningful conversation. Wonderful. Need to try this recipe
Delish, THANK YOU! I just made a mushroom truffle cream sauce. I bet that would go good with the beefy tofu.
Interesting conversation as well!
Miyoko, you are so personable, I feel like you're a friend sharing your recipe. You are such a gift
Looks similar to "beef" stroganoff.
I am definitely going to make it. Looks divine. One doesn't have to agree with someone's points of view, but still hear them out to see where they come from.
I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation.
I have had African American friends all throughout my life and many have told me about what their families have always eaten and about all of the diseases they suffer from as a result. It’s awful. I hope the community can make changes to avoid all of the suffering, the cost, the early deaths, etc. It’s crazy.
I love this collaboration so much. I look forward to these videos each week. Miyoko is such a bright light and helps chase away the sunday scaries! I don't personally think tofu needs to be a "replacement" for beef or recreate meaty foods. But I have never been much of a meet eater.
I know what Vegan Sistah means about peeling garlic. It was painful. I was overjoyed when I watched Yan Can Cook decades ago. I’ve been smashing garlic ever since. Lol
I really enjoyed hearing from Dr. Harper as a regular white person living in a city of POC whose health outcomes, due to poor nutrition and lack of comprehensive health/social services, are bad. It's not for me to criticize, but if I see one more neighborhood street corner barbecue stand cooking food that will kill the local people lining up to buy it, I'll scream. Thanks for the recipe, and the conversation!
Miyoko I love watching your story unfold! May you keep finding your way and bringing us along. Many thanks!
Thank you for a such wonderful video.
I love how Miyoko has touched upon the problem of lack of biodiversity in race, food, & environment! Another way that veganism is more than a diet!
Luscious!!! I must make it when I come back from my travels ❤
Great show and I want some of your delicious food. I am not a good cook but you make my mouth water!
Thank you! Great teaching on soy benefits and per usual, wonderful recipe from Myoko! Definitely will make this!
Love you both😊With vegan greetings🍀🍀🍀
Thank you for this interesting conversation. Veganism is definitely a comprehensive movement, however as you pointed out, some aspects need more attention from all of us. We need to keep these issues out there and not let the conversation fade. And thank you for the amazing recipe! I'm going to make it, but with mashed potatoes & lingonberry jam since i'm Nordic. Although we do love pasta dishes a lot. Maybe i'll try this also with pasta someday.
Love the recipe
Jah & Jahes love. This was a great interview for your program. I'm a High Raw Vegan and a RastafarI so I don't use alcohol as such I wouldn't have been able to enjoy your meal. I wish you had included a mixed green salad in there. I learned a long time ago that it's best for digestion to always eat some raw in every meal. Still, I very much enjoyed the conversation and I loved the questions that Mrs Schinner asked Dr. Harper's responses were on point as always. I am from New York City, I will look into Liberated Farms for more information and activities on how to include Blacks in the Vegan lifestyle. Blessed love.#1804#Ayiti#ToutMounseMoun#AbolishCPS#AbolishPoverty#DefundFosterCare#ProChoice#RawVeganforLife#HRES40NOW#220YearsFREE#FreeAyiti#HandsOffAyiti
I made this dish earlier today and I must say, it is at the top of my list for tofu endeavors😁!!! So full of flavor!!! Thank you Dr. Harper for all of your shared wisdom!!! What a great conversation while watching the chef do her thing. Loved the entire atmosphere ! Peace n Love✨️
I love tofu and Asian food particularly and I’m a white American woman. Would love to hear about things that bring people together rather than keep us apart. ❤
The division is “deliberately” seeded and keeps on growing
Totally agree. Many countries have meat so why is it only white that becomes racist.
This video isn't divisive. It's addressing issues that are not discussed in the mainstream, and should be every citizen's concern. ?
❤️🙏shared
Gotta get folks to bring vegetables to cookouts, not rotting corpse chunks (meat)!
Trader Joe makes a soy milk with NO ADDITIVES
I remember Dr. Harper when she ran for Vice President!
I also prefer tamari!
I live in a middle/upper class white community on Long Island ny. And there is and has been a fast food joint every 20 feet on the main strip. Burger King, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, kfc, Arby’s, Roy rogers, now they added chic filet not to mention a pizzeria and bagel joint on every corner since I’ve moved here at 4 years old 50 years ago. But there are also grocery stores. And people can make the right choices or the wrong choices. My parents not once stopped at a McDonald’s. They couldn’t afford to. People can cook or take the lazy way out. Why blame other’s for your own bad decisions? How is this a race thing? It’s a human thing.
It becomes a race thing in the United States because in poor areas the supermarket chains often offer no fresh produce at all. I'm serious, NOTHING. The only foods that are available and affordable are frozen ready-meals, chips, pizza you name it. Add to that that many poor families are single parent families where the parent works several jobs just to barely get by means that not only are they cash poor, but extremely time poor as well. The same issues do affect very poor white neighbourhoods as well, it's just that the overwhelming proportion of impoverished people in the US are POC. People want to make better choices, but if those options are not available, how can they choose anything?
Is there a non alcoholic alternative to red wine?

Yea it's very difficult to be cruelty free when society is built on the inequality and cruelty. There is a chocolate manufacturer called Tony's chocolate that makes slave free chocolate and they have vegan options.
I enjoyed this video so much. But I have to say, with all due respect to Dr. Harper, that most commercial soy is tainted with GMOs these days - even organic tofu. The safest would be locally made tofu. If you really want to keep the black community safe and healthy. GMO soy and corn are not the way to do it. These foods that been ruined by the industrial food complex and should be avoided for the best health practices. There are many non-soy tofus coming out now. I just enjoyed a wonderful pumpkin tofu the other day. Many of these tofus can made at home.
Is there any evidence for what you say? I mean, credible evidence that all soy grown for human consumption has foreign genes spliced into it--that is the actual definition of GMO--and is therefore deleterious to human health (a separate assertion requiring separate proof)? Asking sincerely.
Slavery always existed in Africa.
Intersectionals and pseudoscience
We must do better
😂
could have done without all the victimhood before the food.
Did that hurt you somehow?
@@mattsapero1896 when much of the world eat hamburgers and meat why is it only white racist people that are critiqued. Just getting Tired of the racist thing
Checking your channel and wondering why you're here. Trolling?
