Another easy to make side dish, tofu salad with white sesame dressing. Check older post (January 20, Sesame 4 Breakfast) for health benefits of sesame. Serve 2 persons
Ingredients:
1/2 tofu (well drained)
1/2 advocado
1 tbsp of sesame powder
1 tsp of grated ginger
1/2 tsp of salt
How to make:
1. Drain tofu by laying the tofu on a strainer and if the tofu is firm enough, you can put a bowl on the top for a faster result. Leave it there for 20-30 minutes. It is best when the tofu is fresh as you will not boil it.
2. Slice advocado into cubes
3. Once drained, you can cut tofu into cubes (you will find less water dripping from tofu this way) and arrange them into a bowl.
4. Put the other ingredients and mix well gently or the tofu will crumble.

ReplyDeleteThe Aztecs referred to avocados as, ahem, testicles, because of their physical shape. But the scientific reason why avocados make sense as an aphrodisiac is that they are rich in unsaturated fats and low in saturated fat, making them good for your heart and your arteries. Anything that keeps the heart beating strong helps keep blood flowing to all the right places; in fact, men with underlying heart disease are twice as likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED).
