Baek Jong-won's Oriental Tofu Salad

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Lightly sprinkle salt on the tofu and pat dry before coating with starch—this reduces splattering during frying and greatly improves the final result.
• For a simpler, lower-calorie option, skip frying and instead mash or slice the tofu raw like ricotta cheese—it pairs wonderfully with this salad.
• Use extra virgin olive oil instead of regular pure olive oil for better aroma and flavor in your salad dressing.
• Using tangy pickled vegetable brine that includes lemon or tomato eliminates the need for additional vinegar or lemon juice to achieve a perfect Oriental dressing taste.
