dipping

Adapted from Gourmet 
Notes:
The original recipe calls for both toasting and crushing the sesame seeds. For simplicity, I often just toast the seeds. If you want to also crush the sesame seeds, you can mince them with some of the garlic and the scallions, which helps keep the seeds from flying off the cutting board.
The sauce can be made 1 day ahead and chilled. Bring to room temperature before using. Consider doubling it if you want to serve it with rice. 
Regarding Korean hot red pepper flakes: you can use crushed red pepper flakes in their place or a chili paste such as Sriracha or Sambal Oelek. 
The tofu can be kept warm for as long as 4 hours.
As noted in the post, I love the tofu with this broiled broccoli. 

Warm Tofu with Spicy Garlic Sauce

1 (14- to 18-oz) package firm tofu

garlic

sesame seeds, toasted, see notes above

soy sauce, low sodium

Asian sesame oil

coarse Korean hot red-pepper flakes, see notes above

sugar

Place the tofu in a shallow sauce pan and cover with cold water. Noe: I like to cut the block of tofu in half. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then keep warm, covered, over very low heat for at least 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, mince and mash the garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt. Stir together with the remaining ingredients.

Just before serving, carefully lift the tofu from the saucepan with a large spatula and drain on a towel (or simply use a slotted spatula and skip the drying step). Transfer the block or blocks of tofu to a shallow bowl or bowls. Spoon the sauce over the tofu and serve warm. 

I loved the tofu.  Have never simmered it before and it made a nice light texture that was amazing.  By far the best way I have had it prepared.

My sauce was a different story, very salty and overpowering.  I used reduced salt tamari.  I made a double recipe but only ended using about 1/3 of it because of the saltiness.  Is there a brand you recommend?

This quick Canned Tuna Dip is inspired by a classic Italian tonnato sauce recipe, traditionally made with canned tuna, lemon, capers, and olive oil plus the anchovies and mayonnaise that are omitted in this recipe. But I promise that this lighter version tuna spread can be made in 5 minutes and will be just as delicious when you serve it at your Superbowl party in spread in a tuna sandwich or tuna melt.

SOOO good!  Thanks for the simple and delicious recipe.

Wow! This dipping sauce is amazing. I now use it on nearly every Asian appetizer that I make. Thanks for sharing.

Love it! I don't have Sriracha so instead, used a bit of Red Curry Paste. Also omitted the sesame seeds and spring onion because it was already perfect for me ❤️

Very delicious dipping sauce!!!

I served this alongside the rice paper dumplings and it was great. I added a teaspoon of maple syrup (because I always like a bit of sweet in my dipping sauces) and omitted the sesame seeds.
