Five Spice Soup
I found this at planetgreen.discovery.com this morning... haven't tried it but I plan on it!
Five Spice Soup
6 cups vegetable broth or water
1/2 pound firm tofu
2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
1 large shallot head, sliced thinly
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tbsp black bean sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 bunch tatsoi, chopped (substitute spinach, cabbage or other vegetables)
1 large sweet potato, sliced
2-3 small turnips, cut into bite-size pieces (about 2 cups)
2-3 scallions, cut on the bias
handful of cilantro
1 package buckwheat soba noodles, cooked according to package directions
1. Heat several tablespoons of oil in large soup pot. Saute shallots and garlic just until they start to brown. Add spice powder and tofu, stir-frying to coat (add additional oil if needed). Add soy sauce, black bean sauce, broth, sweet potatoes and turnips. Bring to a boil then reduce heat, cover and cook until turnips and sweet potatoes are cooked about 20 minutes.
2. Add tatsoi and cook 5 more minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste.
3. To serve, scoop some noodles into a large bowl, spoon soup over noodles. Garnish with cilantro and scallions.
