Directions

Step 1

Drain and press the tofu for 20 minutes to remove excess water. Cut into thick slices.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, sugar, and grated ginger to create a marinade.

Step 3

Marinate the tofu slices in the sauce for at least 15 minutes, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook the tofu for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 5

Spread umeboshi paste on one side of each bread slice. Layer shiso leaves and a slice of tofu on top.

Step 6

Assemble the sandwich by placing another slice of bread on top. Serve immediately or toast for extra crunch.
