Cook the dry udon noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine 2 tbsp (30 mL) soy sauce, vinegar, and 2 tsp (10 mL) arrowroot.
Mix well, add the tofu, and mix gently. Let stand for 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C).
In a measuring cup, combine the remaining 1 tbsp soy sauce (15 mL), 1 tbsp (15 mL) arrowroot, 1/2 c (120 mL) broth, hoisin sauce, and chili puree. Mix well and set aside.
Place tofu on a baking sheet. Bake until light brown, about 30 minutes, turning once. Remove tofu and set aside.
Heat 1/4 c (60 mL) broth in the wok. Add the ginger and garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
Add the bell pepper, celery, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Pour in the remaining 1/4 c broth (60 mL), cover, and steam vegetables for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the sugar snap peas, cover, and steam for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tofu and stir-fry for 1 minute.
Pour in the sauce and turn to coat the tofu and vegetables. Add the cooked udon noodles and turn to cover the noodles with sauce.
