My kids won't eat dried sweet potato, so I always end up with a bunch left over when we get them as gifts. I wanted to try to find a way of cooking them into meals to use them up. With this recipe, even my kids will happily chomp them down.You don't have to toast the dried sweet potatoes if you don't want to, but they will be hard, so be careful when cutting them. Other than mizuna, you can also use green peppers, green beans, or julienned cucumbers. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

I made this with things I already had in the refrigerator when I thought I needed one more item for dinner.Adjust the amount of vegetables you use to your liking. The vegetables are very hot just out of the microwave, so be careful. If you're having this as a hot salad, warm the bowl over hot water for a while, it will be even hotter and nicer. Please adjust the microwaving time according to your liking. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by John Lee Cooker

I love seasoning enoki mushrooms with ponzu and I also love it with the crispy texture of fried tofu as well. I thought that combining the two would make it very tasty.Do not overboil the enoki and remove as much moisture as possible.Make the tofu crispy! Once you add the enoki mushrooms, the fried tofu will soak up the water and becomes soggy, so I recommend making it just before serving. Recipe by Ponzu shokunin nao

I love ponzu. I put ponzu sauce on hiyayakko chilled tofu or fried eggs. I adapted a recipe I saw once in a cookbook. My hubby likes simpler flavorings like soy sauce on his tofu so I always just make this for myself.Work quickly after you add the ponzu sauce! Otherwise the ponzu will evaporate.If you microwave the tofu to get rid of the excess water, it will also become nice and warm - recommended for winter. For 2 servings. Recipe by Kinakorin
