Warm Silken Tofu with Spicy Garlic Soy

This recipe transforms delicate silken tofu into a comforting warm appetizer topped with a punchy garlic and chili oil dressing. It takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and offers a perfect balance of savory soy, nutty sesame, and aromatic heat.

Ingredients

1 block (12-14 oz) silken tofu
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp chili oil (with chili flakes)
1 tsp sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 green onion, thinly sliced
1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. 1

    Carefully remove the silken tofu from its package and drain the water. Place the block into a heat-proof shallow bowl.

  2. 2

    Steam the tofu for 5 minutes or microwave it, covered loosely, for about 2 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    While the tofu is warming, combine the soy sauce, sugar, minced garlic, sesame oil, and chili oil in a small bowl. Whisk until the sugar dissolves.

  4. 4

    Remove the tofu from the heat and carefully drain any excess water that has accumulated in the bowl.

  5. 5

    Pour the savory sauce mixture generously over the warm tofu.

  6. 6

    Garnish with the thinly sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds, then serve immediately.
