Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Drain the tofu and press it between paper towels to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into thick slices.

  2. 2

    Fry the Tofu

    In a non-stick skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu slices and fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Make the Yuzu Miso Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the miso paste, yuzu juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Adjust the seasoning to taste.

  4. 4

    Serve the Tofu

    Once the tofu is fried, place it on a serving plate. Drizzle the yuzu miso sauce over the tofu and then drizzle with chili crunch oil. Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
