“Kaki and Shungiku Shira-ae” – A Delicate Autumn Tofu Salad

This traditional dish combines the natural sweetness of ripe persimmon with the aromatic bitterness of shungiku (chrysanthemum greens),
all gently dressed in a creamy mixture of momen-dofu (firm tofu).
Rich in plant-based protein, the tofu provides a smooth base,
while persimmon adds vitamin C and shungiku brings beta-carotene—making this a nourishing side dish that supports immunity during the cooler months.

The umami of simmered shiitake mushrooms adds depth, and a blend of ground sesame and miso gives the tofu dressing a mellow richness.
Mild, balanced, and easy for all ages to enjoy, this is a perfect make-ahead dish that captures the flavors and nutrients of the season.

1 persimmon, peeled and seeded

2 tsp ground sesame paste

1 Tbsp miso

1 tsp sugar

Microwave the tofu for 3 minutes to remove excess moisture, then drain.

Lightly blanch the shungiku, squeeze well, and cut into 3 cm pieces.

Peel the persimmon and cut into thin matchsticks (about 5 mm thick).

Slice the shiitake mushrooms and simmer in a small amount of dashi for about 3 minutes. Squeeze out excess liquid.
