TOFU SALMON SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oil and minced garlic over medium heat for two minutes to infuse the oil and take the bite out of the garlic.

MOTHER NORTH TOFU: VEGAN SCANDANAVIAN 'SALMON' DELIGHT

Steps:

• Cut the tofu out of the package and drain the excess water. Cut into cubes.
• Dry out the tofu thoroughly until there is no more water coming out if you prod it-- my method is the lazy way as follows-- just shove the bowl of cubes in the microwave for 5 minutes on high, then press down on it with paper towels over the sink to drain excess water. Let stand for 10-15 minutes.
• Make a baste of the remaining ingredients except the parsley. Marinate the tofu with this baste, stirring or brushing well to make sure it's dispersed.
• Lightly grease a small baking dish (a pie pan will do) with some olive oil, then place the marinated tofu in it.
• Bake at 350F for 25 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with boiled potatoes and cucumber salad, which I have a nice recipe for!
