  • About

Yuba is a by-product of soy milk that is often used in shojin cooking. This is a unique alternative to typical maki (sushi rolls) using fresh yuba skin and spinach, which is both delicate and refreshing.

Ingredients

  • 250 g (9 oz) spinach
  • 4 fresh yuba sheets

Method

Mix all the ingredients for the miso sauce in a saucepan over low heat. Turn off heat when sugar is dissolved. Set aside.

Rinse spinach leaves well and trim off crowns.

Boil a pot of water and add salt and sugar. Add spinach and parboil for about 1 minute. Remove and rinse in cold water. Drain and gently squeeze to remove any excess water. Portion out into 4 bundles.
