Preparation Steps
  1. Gently drain the silken tofu and cut it into wedges. Carefully place the tofu on a serving platter, making sure to keep the pieces intact.
  2. Slice the Early Girl tomatoes into wedges. In a bowl, drizzle them with soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil, giving them a gentle toss to coat. Let them marinate for about 10-15 minutes to enhance their flavor.
  3. Once the tomatoes have marinated, artfully arrange them on top of the tofu wedges. The vibrant colors will create a visually appealing centerpiece!
  4. Finish by sprinkling chopped scallions and sesame seeds over the top, adding a final touch of flavor and crunch for an eye-catching presentation.
