Description[]

During the sweltering days of summer, chilled tofu can be quite delightful as a side dish. This simple marinated tofu is equally delicious unadorned or sprinkled as desired with sesame seeds and thinly chopped scallions. Serve on a chilled plate or in a bowl filled with ice cubes and citrus wedges.

Ingredients[]

  • 1 pkg firm tofu, cut into ½ in cubes
  • 1½ – 2 cups ponzu

Directions[]

  1. Place tofu cubes in a medium sized, non-metal bowl.
  2. Pour ponzu over tofu making sure that tofu is completely submerged.
  3. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set in refrigerator for 1 hour.
  4. After 1 hour, pour liquid from the tofu, reserving ponzu for another use.
  5. Keep tofu refrigerated tightly covered until ready to use.
