Chef's Notes
Do not rush the pressing of the tofu! Excess water dilutes the magnificent sauce, turning your masterpiece into a sad, watery puddle.
Pro Tip
Toast your sesame seeds in a dry pan for just thirty seconds before garnishing to unlock an unbelievable depth of aroma.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to discard the accumulated tofu water while pressing, leaving your salad swimming in a tragic, flavorless moat of sadness.
