That’s all there is to this soba with tofu and snow peas dish! I used a block of smoked tofu, but any type will work! If you don’t have pre-cooked tofu then just thinly slice some firm tofu and fry or bake it to your liking.

The dressing is what really makes this dish – it’s seriously packed with flavour. You can even make the dressing ahead of time if you want which makes this even quicker to whip up!
