Here is how you make 101 Cookbooks Otsu Salad:

Otsu - Make the dressing by combining the zest, ginger, honey, cayenne, and salt in a food processor (or use a hand blender) and process until smooth. Add the lemon juice, rice vinegar, and soy sauce, and pulse to combine. With the machine running, drizzle in the oils.Cook the soba in plenty of rapidly boiling salted water just until tender, then drain and rinse under cold running water 'til chilled.While the pasta is cooking, drain the tofu, pat it dry, and cut it into rectangles roughly the size of your thumb (½ inch thick and 1 inch long). Cook the tofu in a dry nonstick (or well-seasoned) skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes, until the pieces are browned on one side. Toss gently once or twice, then continue cooking for another minute or so, until the tofu is firm, golden, and bouncy.In a large mixing bowl, combine the soba, the ¼ cup cilantro, the green onions, cucumber, and about ⅔ cup of the dressing. Toss until well combined. Add the tofu and toss again gently. Serve on a platter, garnished with the toasted sesame seeds and cilantro sprigs if you'd like. I sometimes put mine over a handful of mixed greens for a nutritional punch. Enjoy!Serves 4-6.Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user COMMITMENTS.
