1. To prepare the tofu steaks, cut tofu lengthwise into 4 (1/2-inch thick)
slices. Place the tofu steaks on several layers of heavy-duty paper towels,
and let stand 5 minutes.
2. Combine flour and next 6 ingredients (flour through pepper). Dredge each
tofu steak in flour mixture. Dip in egg; dredge again in flour mixture.
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add
tofu steaks; cook 6 minutes, turning after 3 minutes. Remove from skillet;
cut each tofu steak into 4 wedges. Keep warm.

soy sauce in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

cook 1 minute or until thick. Remove from heat; stir in ginger. Keep warm.
