Method
 

Rehydration and Filling Preparation
  1. Boil water in a kettle or pot, then pour it over the dried shiitake mushrooms in a bowl. Allow them to soak for about 20 minutes, until plump and tender.
  2. Finely dice the rehydrated mushrooms and reserve about half a cup of the soaking liquid.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, crumble the extra firm tofu. Add the diced shiitake mushrooms, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped scallion, and shredded cabbage.
  4. Pour in sesame oil, tamari, and maple syrup, then gently mix until well combined.
Broth Infusion and Assembly
  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the reserved mushroom soaking liquid with gochujang and miso paste until smooth.
  2. Pour this liquid into the tofu mixture, stirring until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  3. Take a heat-safe bowl and layer it with wonton wrappers, starting with a layer at the bottom, then a portion of the tofu filling. Repeat until reaching the top.
  4. Finish with another layer of wonton wrappers, pour remaining broth over layers and seal with an additional wrapper.
Steaming and Serving
  1. Prepare your steamer, fill it with water, and bring it to a boil.
  2. Once boiling, place the assembled bowls inside the steamer basket, cover with a lid, and steam for about 15 minutes.
  3. Check that wonton wrappers are tender and filling is heated through, then carefully remove the bowls from the steamer.
  4. Drizzle crispy chili oil over the top of each lasagna and serve immediately.
