TOFU AND RICE WITH SCALLION OIL
The genius of this six-ingredient dish lies in the easy but mighty scallion oil. There are many ways to make scallion oil, ranging from merely pouring hot oil over scallions to more elaborate preparations involving a myriad of ingredients. This version adds fish sauce and a touch of sugar. The result is an umami-laden sauce that transforms a simple bowl of tofu and rice into an example of Vietnamese home cooking at its simplest and finest. You'll make more scallion oil than needed for this recipe. Refrigerate the leftover oil in an airtight container for up to five days and use it to dress grilled meats, roasted potatoes or vegetables.

Steps:
- Cut the tofu block crosswise into 6 equal segments, then cut the segments into 3 equal pieces to make 18 pieces. Press the tofu pieces between paper towels to dry them. Set aside.
- Add the scallions, fish sauce and sugar to a medium heatproof bowl and place the bowl next to the stove. Place a wire rack in a baking pan or sheet and place next to the stove as well.
- Add 2 1/2 inches of oil to a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan or high-walled cast-iron skillet set over medium-high heat. When the oil reaches 190 degrees F (see Cook's Note), ladle out 1/2 cup of oil and slowly pour over the scallion mixture; it should sizzle. Set aside the scallion oil while you fry the tofu.
- Heat the remaining oil in the saucepan to 375 degrees F. Add the tofu and fry until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the tofu to the wire rack-lined baking pan to drain.
- Divide the tofu among 2 to 3 bowls of rice. Stir the scallion oil to incorporate the oil with the scallions, then ladle generous spoonfuls over the tofu.
TOFU WITH SIZZLING SCALLION OIL
This refreshing weeknight meal comes together in less than 15 minutes and barely requires turning on the stove. Aromatic garlic, ginger and scallions are gently heated in oil until they sizzle and infuse it, turning into a fragrant, lively sauce for mild silken tofu. Peppery arugula and a final drizzle of tangy cilantro sauce brighten the dish. Enjoy with steamed rice for a heftier meal, or top with fried eggs. Leftover tofu can be stored in the scallion oil and refrigerated; it will have absorbed even more flavor the next day.

Steps:
- Remove the tofu from its package; drain the tofu then pat it dry. Scoop spoonfuls of the tofu onto a large platter and arrange in an even layer. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a small saucepan, combine neutral oil, sesame oil, scallions, garlic and ginger. Cook over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until oil is sizzling and garlic, ginger and scallions are softened but not browned, about 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine soy sauce, cilantro and vinegar.
- Spoon hot scallion mixture over the tofu. Top with arugula and drizzle with the cilantro sauce. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat the broiler and place a rack as close as possible to the flame. Put the tofu pieces on a plate and rub with all over with the teriyaki sauce.
- Add the vegetable oil, one of the pieces of ginger, half the scallions and the garlic cloves to a small saucepan. Heat to a lively simmer, then turn off the heat and allow the oil to steep for 15 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add 2 tablespoons salt, then add the broccoli, blanch for 2 minutes, then drain well and shock under cold running water to stop the cooking. Chop into 1-inch lengths and set aside.
- Heat the chicken stock in a small saucepan over medium heat-add the remaining piece of ginger, the soy sauce and half the sesame oil, and simmer on very low heat.
- Place the tofu pieces in an ovenproof skillet or on a baking sheet and broil, turning once, until beginning to caramelize all over, about 4 minutes per side.
- While the tofu is broiling, pick the piece of ginger out of the scallion oil and discard. Heat ½ of the scallion oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add the chopped broccoli, the red pepper, the onion and the remaining sesame oil and sauté until warmed through.
- To serve, place a mound of the broccoli in the center of a bowl. Place a piece of broiled tofu over the greens. Ladle some chicken stock around the greens, then add a few spoonfuls of the scallion oil. Repeat with a second bowl, top both bowls with the remaining scallions, and serve.

- Prepare your silken tofu by cutting it in half lengthwise and then slicing it crosswise into ½-inch slices. Use your knife or cleaver to transfer each half of the cut tofu to a large heatproof rimmed plate or shallow bowl. The dish should be deep enough to hold the steaming liquid and sauce.
- Lay the tofu on the plate so the pieces are fanned out evenly, with as much tofu surface area exposed as possible. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the tofu.
- Next, steam the tofu. Add 4 cups of cold water to a wok, place the tofu on a steaming rack inside, and cover the wok.
- Turn on the heat to medium-high. The water should boil in about 7 minutes. After it has begun boiling, continue to steam for another 3 minutes––a total of 10 minutes.
