Chilled Tofu with Spicy Toppings Chilled Tofu with Spicy Toppings
This was on the menu at a sushi shop I visited. It was really nice, so I tried to recreate the taste at home.In the restaurant they topped the tofu with something like salty kimchi shiokara (salt preserved fish), but it's tasty enough with just kimchi.Adjust the seasonings to suit your tastes. It's delicious with a lot of ginger. Recipe by Renocchi -

Chilled Tofu with Spicy Toppings Chilled Tofu with Spicy Toppings
I wondered, what would curry flavored chilled tofu taste like and tried it out, and when I tried it out, I really liked it.Put the topping mixture on the tofu as soon as you've added the flavoring ingredients. If you leave it sitting for too long it'll become watery.I've tried walnuts and almonds in this, and both worked well. Maybe other types of nuts will work too? Experiment around to find your favorite kind! For 1 serving. Recipe by John Lee Cooker -
