Chunky Okra & Tofu Salad
I was asked to make a dish that was quick to make during the hot summer days and that would increase the appetite. The flavorful pure sesame oil use in the dressing really brings out the flavor of the other ingredients. Since this dressing goes well with various ingredients, you can use it on salad daily.
Silken tofu will fall apart too easily, so I recommend using firm tofu. You can use the microwave to remove the moisture if you don't have time. In that case, wrap the tofu in a paper towel and microwave for 1-2 minutes. It will taste even better if you blanch the tomatoes to remove the skin. Recipe by Kadoya-seiyu

Tofu and Cabbage Salad Tofu and Cabbage Salad
This is my "super-lazy salad" that I eat quite frequently. Tofu and mentsuyu somehow go really well with cabbage. I wanted to share one of my healthy recipes with you guys.It's better to chop up the cabbage rather than shredding it!Since it's done in a flash, try prepping the tofu just before serving. It'll taste better that way. Please adjust the seasoning to your liking. If it tastes too plain, add a little more mentsuyu to adjust. Recipe by Pabuchan -
Hijiki Seaweed and Okra Salad Hijiki Seaweed and Okra Salad
I've been making this for ages. As soon as I envisioned the ingredients in my head I came up with this flavor combination and recipe.I always just eyeball the ingredients so I didn't put in any specific amounts. Just put in approximate amounts. Put in less mayonnaise than soy sauce. It's better if you put in plenty of bonito flakes. If you're on a weight loss diet, use reduced-fat mayonnaise. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Raichi -

Added Tofu to my favorite avocado and tomato salad. with Japanese style sesame dressing. If you don't have time to drain the tofu, you can skip the process but eat it right away, or else, the water will come out of the tofu and dressing will get watery.
