For the tofu

In a medium hot pan, add 2 tbsp of jalapeno oil and diced tofu. Season with 1/2 tsp of salt and cook for 3-4 minutes. This should allow the tofu to get a little crust on the outside and infuse some of the flavor of the oil into it. After about 4 minutes just turn off the heat and allow to cool in the pan.

For the salad

In a small mixing bowl combine veganaise and miso and mix well. In a separate bowl add blanched edamame, tofu, shallot, green onion, and a pinch of salt. Add 1-2 tbsp of miso "mayo" to the salad and mix well. Taste the seasoning and adjust if need be with either salt, miso, or spice.
