Ingredients
- 1 small carrot, peeled and coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup prepared carrot juice
- 2 tablespoon white or yellow miso, (see Note)
- 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

Cooking Directions
Step 1
To prepare dressing: Puree carrot, carrot juice, miso, vinegar, oil, ginger and garlic in a blender or food processor until smooth.
Step 2
To prepare tofu: Slice each tofu block crosswise into 5 slices; pat dry with paper towels. Combine honey, oil, soy sauce, black bean-garlic sauce and garlic in a small bowl. Spread half the marinade in a large baking dish and top with the tofu slices. Spread the remaining marinade over the tofu, covering completely.
Step 3
Preheat grill to medium-high. Oil the grill rack (see Tip). Grill the tofu until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. To serve, toss greens with the dressing. Divide among 6 plates and top with the tofu.
