"Want a flavor boost? Try our TOFU LOVER seasoning in this recipe! I like to make this recipe for dinner, because it’s so easy to prepare—just dice sweet potato and tofu and throw them in the oven. To give them a slightly crispy crust, they are marinated with an aromatic sauce. When it comes to the flavors, I was inspired by Japanese cuisine: Miso paste is the basis for the sauce and the topping is a variation of the Japanese spice mixture furikake, which is mainly sprinkled on rice or onigiri. It traditionally consists of bonito flakes, nori, and sesame, among other things, but here I created a vegan version of it."
