Shiitakes, tofu, and miso

When I first moved to Saarbruecken there were no shiitakes to be found, but in the last three years they’ve started appearing at a few stores around town.  They’re quite expensive, but at least they exist! I splurged on a bag of shiitakes the other day, and ended up throwing together a quick, tasty stir-fry with an onion, the shiitakes, some diced tofu, and miso.  I sauteed the onion and shiitakes in just a touch of olive oil, then added the tofu and the miso at the end.  I don’t have a recipe, but I loved the combination, and so I thought I’d record it here so I don’t forget it.
