Amount Ingredient
1/2 lb Firm tofu
1 tbl Oil
3 tbl Arrowroot
1 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp White pepper
1 tbl Agar flakes
1 tsp Dried marjoram
1 tsp Dried thyme
1 tbl Minced garlic
1/2 tsp Black pepper
1/2 cup Cima mix (see below)
----------------- CIMA MIX ----------------
1/2 cup Finely chopped onions
2 tbl Olive oil
1 cup Whole wheat bread crumbs
1/4 lb Ground seitan
1/4 lb Fine soy grits
1/4 lb Hand crushed frim tofu
1/3 cup Nutritional yeast
2 tsp Dried marjoram
2 tsp Dried thyme
2 tsp Salt

1 cup Chopped spinach, packed
1/4 cup Chopped roasted red pepper
1/2 cup Pistachios
1 cup Green peas
1 tbl Agar flakes
1/2 cup Gluten flour
Instructions:
Instructions: Rinse tofu and pat dry. Cube and puree in food processor with all ingredients except cima mix.

Shape the cima mix into a 12" by 3" roll. Sread the tofu puree on a 12" by 28" piece of plastic wrap and roll around the cima log. Smooth out the seam. Steam 30 minutes, let cool 10 minutes, slice and serve.

Note: you MUST have a steamer wide enough to support the entire roll from underneath! If you dont, it will slip and come unrolled. Itll still get cooked, but rather than a pretty, colorful roll to slice youll have a serious mess. This shouldnt be a problem, but for a broke person cooking for nine @someone elses apartment, these harware problems have a nasty way of only becoming apparently an hour before mealtime. (sigh)

CIMA MIX: (makes 4 1/2C Bro Ron suggests using the extra for meatballs or something. Far be it from me to argue w/my hero, but remember to use a big enough skillet.)

Saute onions in oil until translucent. Remove from heat. Add bread crumbs, tofu, seitan, soy grits, nut yeast, water and seasoning. Mix until evenly dispersed. Add vegs and nuts.

In a separate bowl, mix agar and gluten flour. Heat lecithin and stir into veg mixture, then stir in flour/agar mixture.
