Cold Tofu with Cilantro, Scallions, and Soy Sesame Sauce: As simple as it gets
I get asked a lot, "How do you cook with three kids?" The answer, I don't cook all the time. Sometimes I just construct. I take simple things and just dress them a bit and make a dish. Tofu is one of my favorite ingredients to do this with, because you can literally do almost nothing to it and still create something yummy. Tofu is, in and of itself, a good dish - and dressing with a few simple touches makes it special. This is one of my fall back dishes when I have nothing to cook for daughters. (son is allergic to soy so not for him) It takes minutes to put together and is especially refreshing and yummy in the summer. Go out, buy a pack of tofu and make this for an easy side dish or appetizer.Cold Tofu with Cilantro, Scallions, and Soy Sesame Sauce
