Asian Millet Salad

Ingredients

2 millet
6 tb mirin
10 oz tofu
3 tb soy sauce
3/4 c snow peas
1 1/2 tb rice
3/4 c peas
1 clove garlic
8 oz water chestnuts
1 ts sugar
1/2 c scallion

Instructions

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!
