See below ingredients and instructions of the recipe
2 lb Firm or extra-firm tofu, Soy or other vegetable oil
-frozen (see note) -for frying
5 c Water Dip:
1/2 c Finely minced fresh ginger 1/2 lb Soft tofu
-(My note - is this for Additional
-real? That's what 1/2 c Water
It Additional
Says!) 2 tb Soy sauce
3/4 c Soy sauce Garnishes:
1/2 c Whole-wheat pastry or white Tofu Tartar Sauce (recipe
-flour -follows)
1/2 c Fine cornmeal Fresh parsley
To defrost tofu, place plastic bag filled with frozen tofu into bowl
of hot water. After about 15 minutes, drain bowl and ad more hot
water. Repeat process until tofu is soft.
Remove tofu from plastic bag, rinse, and then squeeze out excess
water by placing cakes between two plates and pressing plates
together while tipping out water. Cut tofu horizontally into 1/2
inch thick slices.
In large shallow pot, combine water, ginger, and soy sauce. Simmer
sliced tofu in the marinade for 20 minutes. With large spatula,
remove tofu.
Gently squeeze out excess liquid by pressing tofu between fingertips.
Set aside.
To make dip, combine soft tofu, 1/2 c water, and 2 Tb soy sauce in
blender or food processor; pour this batter onto large flat plate.
Place whole-wheat flour in a second flat plate and cornmeal on a
third. Dredge each slice of marinated tofu first in flour, then in
batter, and last in cornmeal.
Heat oil to sizzling in large skillet and deep or shallow fry (as you
prefer) each cutlet until both sides are golden brown. Drain on paper
towels.
Serve with dollop of tartar sauce and sprig of fresh parsley.
Note: to freeze tofu, place in plastic bag, seal, and freeze for a
minimum of 48 hours before thawing. The color of frozen tofu will be
a light amber, and when cooked, its texture will be pleasantly chewy.
Makes 6 servings.
