We stir fried this on the grill in a grill bowl that we sprayed with
nonstick spray first. Also, I squeezed and drained the tofu before
marinating it. Very nice.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/4 cup tamari sauce
1/4 cup dry Sherry
1 bunch green onions -- diced
1 garlic cloves -- minced, up to 4
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
2 pounds firm-style tofu
20 shiitake mushrooms -- with stems
To make marinade, combine tamari and Sherry in flat-bottomed bowl. Add
diced onion, garlic, cayenne, sugar and ginger. Stir. Set aside half of
the marinade. Cube the tofu and soak in the remaining mixture for at least
2 hours in the refrigerator.
Prepare the coals in a grill. Put mushrooms and tofu on skewers. Place
over hot coals for 10 to 15 minutes, regularly flipping and drizzling with
additional marinade. To eat, hold the mushroom by the stem and eat the
cap. (The stem isn't edible -- the cap is woody and juicy.) Serve with
grilled asparagus, summer squash or other vegetables. Serves 4.
