RECIPE :: Smoked tofu and mushroom pate
Smoky flavours in food gives a unique flavour that I am only now starting to play with and am amazed that I have been cooking for over a decade and not played with such fabulous food stuff. Here in this recipe I put the smoky versions of three of my favourite foods (as you can see from reading these random rants I have many favourite foods) into this pate. The result is a warm feeling pate that I am more than happy with.

1 onion (finely chopped),
100g of mushrooms (finely chopped),

½ tsp of miso.
