Agedashi Tofu Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

1

Prepare the Tofu

Drain the tofu and wrap it in paper towels to remove excess moisture. Let it sit for about 15 minutes.

2

Cut Tofu

Once the tofu is dry, cut it into 1-inch cubes.

3

Coat Tofu

Dredge the tofu cubes in potato starch until evenly coated.

4

Heat Oil

In a deep pan or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

5

Fry Tofu

Carefully add the tofu cubes to the hot oil and fry until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

6

Prepare Dashi Broth

In a small pot, combine dashi stock, soy sauce, mirin, and salt. Heat gently until warm.

7

Assemble

Place fried tofu in a serving dish, pour warm dashi broth over the tofu, and top with grated ginger, grated daikon radish, and sliced green onions.
