Recipe : Asian Millet Salad
Procedure :

2 c Cooked millet

6 tb Mirin or dry sherry

1 10-oz package of tofu,

Diced 3 tb Soy sauce

3/4 c Chopped snow peas

1 1/2 tb Rice or cider vinegar

3/4 c Frozen peas, thawed

1 Clove garlic, minced

1 8-oz can sliced water

Chestnuts 1 ts Sugar (or other sweetener)

1/2 c Chopped scallion

In a large bowl, combine the millet, tofu, snow peas, peas, water chestnuts, and scallion. In a small bowl, stir together the mirin, soy sauce, venegar, garlic, and sugar. Pour over the salad and toss to combine. Although the original recipes didn’t say to, I let both of these salads chill for awhile to let the flavors blend before I served them. I think that this step is a particularly good idea for the Asian Millet salad, as it allows the tofu to absorb the flavors of the dressing. If you try these, I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!
