Ingredients

5 blocks firm or extra-firm tofu (well pressed)
2 tablespoon fresh sage (chopped)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme (minced)
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (minced)
1 tablespoon vegetable broth powder
2 tablespoons poultry seasoning
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup red wine
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cups prepared vegetarian stuffing

Steps to Make It

Gather the ingredients.

Working in batches as needed, process the tofu in a blender or food processor until smooth and creamy.

Add the tofu to a large mixing bowl, and stir in the sage, thyme, rosemary, vegetable broth powder, and poultry seasoning, stirring well to combine.

Line a colander with cheesecloth or a thin towel.

Place the tofu in the colander and a layer of cheesecloth or a thin towel on top. Place a weight on top of the towel to gently press the tofu.

Place on a plate or towel and chill for at least 3 hours.

Once the tofu is chilled and firm, scoop out the tofu in the middle, creating a hole or a well, and leaving about 1 1/2 inches of a tofu “shell” in the colander.
