Tofu Topped With Nikumiso (Meat Miso Sauce)

Tofu niku miso kake（豆腐肉みそかけ）

What kind of dish is tofu niku miso kake??

nikumiso = Japanese miso-flavored meat sauce

I put flavorful meat miso(= nikumiso ) on top of tofu.

Nikumiso is a dish made by frying minced meat and seasoning it with miso, sugar, and other seasonings. Minced pork is the most common, but minced chicken or a mix of minced beef and pork is also sometimes used.

The niku miso with the spiciness of gochujang and the umami of red miso is perfect for rice. Tofu is the main dish, so it is healthy(*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊

Gochujang is a Korean seasoning that has both sweetness and spiciness. If you don’t have gochujang available, increase the amount of red miso a little.

It is also recommended as a topping for rice, ramen, and hiyashichuka. I always make large quantities and freeze them.

Niku miso can be stored in the refrigerator for about 5 days or in the freezer for about 1 month. When Niku miso cools, the fat will solidify, so warm it up in the microwave before eating.
