This English recipe, which includes blackberries, apples, and a crumble topping for dessert, was my mother’s favorite and is now the family’s favorite. Serve hot or cold with ice cream, fresh cream, or English custard.

Ingredients
- ¾ pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- ¼ (12 ounce) package firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon tahini
- 1 teaspoon white miso paste
- 1 ½ teaspoons soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon white sugar (Optional)
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add green beans, cover, and steam until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain, allow to cool slightly, and slice on the diagonal. Transfer to a bowl.
- Mash tofu with a fork as much as possible. Mix in tahini and miso paste. Season with soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Blend with an immersion blender until it is the consistency of yogurt.
- Pour dressing over green beans and mix to combine.
- You can also put the dressing in a food processor and blend until desired consistency.
