GINGER-SESAME TOFU SAUCE BY DEBORAH MADISON
Entered for safe-keeping, requesting my vegetarian friends to test this for me. From "This Can't Be Tofu!" by Deborah Madison. This has the texture of a thin mayonnaise, and can be drizzled on cubes of fresh tofu, over romaine salad or cole slaw, or over grilled fish or chicken (if you aren't vegetarian). Over sauteed vegetables this can add an unexpected accent.

Steps:
- Put the first 7 ingredients (through the lime juice) in the small bowl of a food processor and process until well blended, about 2 minutes.
- Add the tofu, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and continue processing, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides, until you have a smooth, green-flecked sauce.
- Taste for salt and season with pepper, to taste.
- If sauce is too thick for your taste, or it thickens in the refrigerator, thin it by whisking in water as needed.

Steps:
- 1. Slice the tofu crosswise into scant 1/ 2-inch slabs, then cut each slab into 2 triangles. Blot with paper towels.
- 2. Heat a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet and add the oil. When hot, add the tofu and fry over medium-high heat until golden. Turn and cook on the second side.
- 3. Meanwhile, combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a small food processor and puree until smooth. Taste for salt and add a little extra, if needed.
- 4. When the tofu is done, pour in half the sauce and cook until bubbling and partially reduced.
- 5. Turn off the heat, scatter the scallions and sesame seeds over the top, and bring to the table.
SEARED TOFU WITH MISO SAUCE
This basic tofu is delicious alone and with the miso sauce. But you have a host of other options as well: you can smother it with sautéed mushrooms or onions, you can put it in a sandwich with the works, or you can even slice it thinly then toss it with skinny udon noodles and peanut sauce. There are endless possibilities.

Steps:
- Drain the tofu then slice it crosswise into 6 pieces. Heat a cast iron or non-stick skillet. Add the tofu, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook over medium-high heat until golden. At first it will twitch around as the water in the tofu turns to steam, but then it will settle down. (Note: Tofu has fat in it so it will brown without adding more oil.) Once the first side is browned, turn and cook the second side, around 10 minutes in all. Shake over a tablespoon or two of your sauce of choice (soy, tamari, Worcestershire), season with salt and pepper to taste, and immediately turn off the heat. You can move to Step 2 while the tofu cooks.
- While the tofu is cooking, using a small saucepan, mix the miso with the sugar and lemon juice. Cook over low heat and cook while stirring until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is bubbly, about a minute. Let it cook, then stir in the lemon zest and vinegar. Taste to make sure the mixture has enough lemon (if using Meyer lemon, you might want to add a little more juice).
- Place the tofu on a plate. Spoon the sauce over the finished tofu and garnish with the scallions and sesame seeds.

From littlespicejar.com
- TOFU: Place a folded tea towel in the shape of the tofu on a plate. Drain the tofu from the package and place the tofu on the prepared plate. Place another tea towel on top (in the shape of the tofu) followed by another plate and 2-28 ounce cans or anything that weighs 2-3 pounds to help remove the water from the tofu. Let the tofu dry for at least 15-20 minutes and ideally, I like to let it go for an hour. Once dry, cut the tofu up into 1-inch cubes and toss in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and the 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- SAUCE: While the tofu is drying, prepare the sauce. Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth. Set aside.
- STIR FRY: In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of oil and swirl to coat pan. Add the cubed tofu to the pan and let fry for 3 minutes. Flipping the tofu as needed to brown all sides. Add 2 tablespoons of the prepared sauce to the tofu and allow to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. When the tofu is caramelized, remove to a plate. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan. Add the veggies and toss to coat. Cook the veggies for 3-4 minutes or to desired doneness. Add the sauce and let it thicken just slightly. Add the tofu and stir to coat. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until the tofu has a chance to soak up the flavor.
- SERVE: Serve warm with rice, quinoa, or on its own. The tofu will lose it's crispness as it sits. Best when eaten fresh.
