Cold tofu, pantry soy dressing
No cooking, silken tofu keeps in a single tiny fridge corner.
This is the base recipe: one batch, 4 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because there is no committed plan for this dish. Build and commit a plan that includes it and this card multiplies itself to the batch count the plan computes.
- Silken tofu14.1 oz
- Soy sauce1.4 tbsp
- Scallion1 ea
Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.
- Cooking time
- Nothing cooks, so batch size does not change a cooking time. Chilling does not scale either — it is set by the depth of the container, so a double batch in one deep tub takes far longer than two shallow ones.
- Seasoning
- Seasoning figures are a starting point at any batch size. Taste before it reaches the table — the multiple is arithmetic, and salt is not.
- Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for cold tofu, pantry soy dressing, not a certified kitchen test.
- Amounts below are one batch: 4 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
- No heat. Assemble from cold ingredients. Keep covered until service.
- Holds about 60 minutes once finished. After that, quality drops — do not invent extra time.
- Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
Day-of only. Do not make this ahead and invent a hold.
Base recipe: one batch, 4 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: about 0 minutes at the stove either way.
Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
