Cold Tofu Rice Bowl (漬けやっこ豆腐丼)

Remove tofu from package and drain well. Pat dry with a lint free tea towel. Into a bowl, add the mentsuyu, sesame oil, garlic and ginger and whisk together. Wrap the tofu with cheesecloth (or paper towel) and place back into the container. Pour the sauce on top and ensure everything is coated in the sauce. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

The next day, remove cheesecloth from the tofu. Add rice to a bowl and top with the tofu. Add sliced scallions, sesame seeds and any other toppings of choice. Serve and enjoy!
