S4E2 · Authentic Japanese Cooking: Tofu hamburger steaks

Our main recipe in this episode is tofu hamburger steaks, a healthy variation on the Japanese western-style standard, made with tofu and low-fat ground chicken instead of beef or pork. By steam-frying these hamburger steaks in a frying pan, they'll come out nicely light and juicy, and the sauce we'll make for them with ponzu and grated daikon radish gives them a deliciously light, clean flavor. For our sides, we'll also be making pumpkin salad, sugar-glazed carrot and shiitake mushrooms, and sugar snap peas, making for a beautifully colorful spread perfect for spring.
