This sesame tofu recipe is perfect! It is not too sweet and not too greasy. Tofu is high in great protein and also tofu itself is low calorie (33 kcal / 2 oz.) so it is good food for people who care about their diet. The recipe is so easy. We can cook with one pan.

http://japanese-food.orgI am Japanese and now live in the United States with my husband. Since then I started my Japanese recipe website to help people learn about the nutritional value of traditional Japanese food, and more importantly, how to make traditional Japanese food with ingredients we can get easily at many local grocery stores in the US. I learned the recipes on this website from my mother, so this site is devoted to real Japanese home cooking! I try to introduce here easy homemade Japanese recipes so I cut out the need of burdensome traditional processes that don’t have an effect on their taste so much.

Cooked it 2 more times already! This has become a weeknight staple for us. Costs $5 to feed the whole family. Very healthy and crispy and whips up super quick. Sometimes I'll just use soy sauce and sugar. Cannot skip draining step.
