Equipment

  • 1 Box grater For grating the tofu into small, egg-like pieces.
  • 1 Medium-sized mixing bowl To combine all the ingredients.
  • 1 Cutting board and knife For chopping the green onions and radishes.
  • 1 Measuring spoons To measure the seasonings.
  • 1 rubber spatula To stir the ingredients and scrape everything out of the bowl.
  • 1 Clean tea towel or paper towels To gently press excess water from the tofu.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 block tofu medium-firm, drained
  • 1 teaspoons black salt or regular salt
  • ½ teaspoons paprika
  • ½ teaspoons black pepper ground
  • 1 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise vegan or not

  • 3 green onions finely sliced
  • 2 radishes finely chopped, optional

Instructions
 

  • - Open the tofu package and drain the water.
  • - Using a clean tea towel or a few paper towels, press on the tofu lightly to remove any excess water. It doesn’t have to be completely dry, but it shouldn’t be dripping.

  • - Chop 3 green onions and 2 radishes (if using), then add those to the tofu in the bowl.

  • - Taste for seasoning, and adjust with salt and pepper if needed.
  • Enjoy right away, or transfer the mixture into a well-sealed food storage container and store in the fridge for 3-4 days.
