Epicurious. Ingredients:
1 (14 ounce) package firm tofu |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
3/4 teaspoon sesame oil |
2 teaspoons rice vinegar (not seasoned) |
1 teaspoon soy sauce |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
4 large celery ribs |
2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted |
Directions:
1. Rinse tofu and pat dry, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. 2. Arrange slices in 1 layer on a triple thickness of paper towels, then cover with another triple thickness of paper towels. 3. Put a small baking sheet on top of tofu and weight with 3 (1-lb) cans (this removes excess moisture), 10 minutes. 4. Meanwhile, whisk together oils, vinegar, soy sauce, and pepper in a large bowl. 5. Trim celery, then peel with a vegetable peeler and slice very thin diagonally. Cut tofu crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide sticks and transfer to a bowl. 6. Toss gently with dressing, celery, sesame seeds, and salt to taste. |
