Yield:
1 Servings

Categories:
Fat-Free




Ingredients:





     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!
