In a small bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients: chopped green onions, minced red chili pepper, minced garlic, water, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, crushed sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes. Mix well with a spoon until thoroughly combined. You can adjust the sugar and red pepper flakes according to your preference.
Step 5
Pour the prepared flavorful dressing evenly over the silken tofu on the plate. Garnish with the fresh chives or garlic sprouts for a beautiful finish. Your refreshing Silken Tofu Cold Salad is now ready to be enjoyed!
