Firm tofu takes on a ginger, lemon, soy, and sesame dressing before fresh herbs are added. The dish is marinated and served without a further cooking stage.

The tofu is drained and dried before slicing. Soy sauce or Bragg seasoning, ginger, sesame oil, Dijon, and lemon are shaken together and used as the marinade.

After at least thirty minutes, cilantro, green onion, sesame seeds, and optional chili flakes are added. The final dish is tossed gently and served without further cooking.

Ingredients

• 1 package firm tofu, about 1 1/2 cups
• 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
• 1/2 cup green onions, sliced
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 1/4 teaspoon dried red chili flakes, optional
• 1/4 cup soy sauce or Bragg seasoning
• 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup lemon juice

Method

Drain and towel-dry the tofu, then cut it into slices about 1/2 inch thick. Shake soy sauce or seasoning, ginger, sesame oil, mustard, and lemon juice together in a jar. Cover the tofu with the dressing and marinate for at least 30 minutes. Gently fold through the herbs, onion, sesame seeds, and optional chili before serving. Serves 4–6.
