Blanch for about 30 seconds and place on a plate. Place the tempeh and kombu in a pan. Add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Add the shoyu and ginger. Simmer for about 15 minutes. Remove and spread one side with mustard. Meanwhile, place the oil for deep-frying on a low flame and warm slowly. Before deep-frying the tempeh, turn the flame to medium. Test the oil is hot enough by dropping a small piece of tofu into the hot oil. If it sizzles immediately on the surface, the oil is hot enough. Deep fry the tempeh until golden or for about 3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper bags or paper towels. Place the ingredients for the peanut sauce in a suribachi. Blend to a smooth creamy texture. Place the tempeh, sauerkraut and carrot in the middle of the collard leaf. Drizzle the peanut sauce on top. Fold up the sides of the collard and roll to make a wrap. Cut in half and serve. |
