“I’m adding versatile tofu to my must-use list for 2024. It’s a canvas for flavour. With the black garlic vinaigrette, it becomes sweet, tangy and full of umami. The sweet greens add another flavour note but feel free to use any seasonal veggies.”- Clement Pedro

- 6 Woolworths black garlic cloves, finely chopped

Ingredients
1. To make the vinaigrette, combine all the ingredients and stir until all the sugar has dissolved.
2. Line a steamer with baking paper with a few holes cut into it. Arrange the tofu, edamame and mangetout on the baking paper. Place the steamer over a saucepan of boiling water over a high heat and steam for 10 minutes.
3. Keep the lid on the basket to keep the tofu and greens warm and place on the table ready to serve. Allow your guests to help themselves and spoon over the vinaigrette.
