Ginger is in season. I love ginger, so I like to have agedashi tofu with lots of flavorful ginger and daikon radish added. Ginger is good for your blood pressure and speeds up your metabolism.

Add the ginger and grated daikon radish at the end of cooking; do not boil them. I make the sauce very thick, but if you would like it thinner, use 1 teaspoon of katakuriko dissolved in an equal amount of water. Recipe by pappatyan
