  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon light olive oil

Preparation 1. Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a small bowl and stir together. 2. Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Blot well between clean tea towels or several layers of paper towels, then cut each slice through the thickness again to make 1/4-inch-thick slices. Blot briefly again. 3. Cut each slice into 2 squares, then each square on the diagonal into 2 triangles. Place in a shallow pan and drizzle with the marinade. Gently turn the tofu pieces over so that both sides are coated with marinade. Let stand for 10 minutes or so. 4. Heat a wide nonstick skillet. Transfer the tofu and marinade into the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring gently and frequently, until the tofu is nicely browned on most sides. Scatter scallions over the tofu if desired, and serve at once.
