Arrange them overlapping slightly on a plate that you will use to steam.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drizzle sesame oil and sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over the tofu. Top it with julienned ginger. Cover the plate and steam until hot, about 6-7 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While steaming the tofu, make the sauce. Add a little olive oil to a small saucepan (or small deep pan) over medium heat. Add minced ginger and saut\u00e9 until fragrant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add minced garlic and continue to saut\u00e9 for a few seconds until fragrant.

Discard the liquid in the plate, then pour the black bean sauce over the tofu slices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scatter scallion slices and sprinkle Sichuan pepper over the tofu and serve right away with rice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients For the Tofu For the Black Bean Sauce Instructions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4916,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[186],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-healthier"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/STEAMED-TOFU-IN-BLACK-BEAN-SAUCE.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4915","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4915"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4915\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4917,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4915\/revisions\/4917"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
