Steps:
- To make the dressing: Put the soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, brown sugar, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, garlic and 2/3 cup of the olive oil into a blender. Blend until completely emulsified. Taste the dressing and adjust to your taste, adding more vinegar or sugar as needed. Pour half of the dressing into a jar and refrigerate for the salad.
- Put the tofu cubes into a bowl and pour over the remaining dressing. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- Remove the tofu from the dressing and pat dry. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the tofu on all sides until nicely browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Toss in the sesame seeds and cook for another minute. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
- To assemble the salad, put the mixed greens, halved tomatoes and sliced onion in a large bowl. Pour on half the remaining dressing, reserving the rest for later use. Toss to coat. Arrange the tofu and mandarin oranges all over the greens. Serve immediately.
TOFU AND HERB SALAD WITH SESAME
Tender sweet herbs are the foundation of this lovely, delicate salad that's dressed with a creamy yogurt sauce flavored with sesame, lime juice, ginger and green chile for kick. Feel free to use any combination of the herbs mentioned in the recipe, though you could also incorporate large leaves of butter lettuce. Topped with cool cubes of soft tofu, this dish is a very flavorful and refreshing first course or light lunch.

- Drizzle sauce over each plate, and garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.
STIR-FRIED CUCUMBER WITH TOFU
This vegan take on the cucumber and pork stir-fry offers the perfect level of acid to balance out the spice. Cooked quickly over high heat, cucumbers become juicy, with a lovely silky texture that is still crisp to the bite. Salting the cucumbers before stir-frying is essential, as it draws out moisture and allows for more of the garlicky umami flavors of the sauce to be soaked up. The tofu delivers heartiness, while the hint of Sichuan chile flakes takes this dish to another level.

Steps:
- Place cucumbers in a bowl, add 1 teaspoon salt, and gently massage the pieces. (This helps to release some of the water.) Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes until the cucumbers are slightly wet and pliable to the touch.
- Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients with 1 tablespoon water.
- Prepare the stir-fry: Heat a wok or a large skillet over high. When smoking hot, add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the tofu, season generously with salt and pepper, and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes until the tofu is partly golden. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Wipe the wok or skillet clean, and keep off the heat until the cucumbers are ready.
- Drain the cucumbers and rinse under cold running water. Drain well, then pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Heat the wok or skillet back over high heat. When hot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the garlic and allow to sizzle for just 10 seconds, then toss in the cucumbers, stir-frying for 2 minutes. Return the tofu to the wok and toss well.
- Add the sauce and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the cucumbers look glossy. Taste and season well with salt and white pepper. Top with scallions and sesame seeds, and serve with rice, if using.

SPICY SESAME TOFU SALAD (VEGETARIAN TIMES)
From Jan 07 VT magazine. NOTE: the cabbage salad listed as an ingredient is actually kimchee. For some reason 'zaar would not let me list kimchee as an ingredient even under different spellings. I am posting the recipe as it appears in the magazine, but found that it was not terribly spicy and would make the following changes: double or triple the kimchee, and add some fresh grated ginger as well as red pepper flakes. Next time I will also cut back on the sesame oil or omit it, even though it adds a really great flavor it also is high in fat. The recipe warns you to check the label of the kimchee for fish sauce or anchovies, if you are vegetarian or don't like fish taste. Otherwise, we enjoyed this salad very much.
