  • 2 anchovy fillets
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free white miso
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 12 oz firm tofu, drained thoroughly, patted dry, cut into 3/4x1/2-inch chunks
  • 1 large head romaine lettuce, ribs removed, torn into bite-size pieces (8 cups)
