2. Cooking Directions

In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the spaghetti until

just done, about 15 minutes. Drain the pasta. Rinse with cold water

and drain thoroughly.

In a medium bowl, combine the tofu with the 1 tablespoon soy sauce

and 1/2 teaspoon of the grated ginger. Let sit for about 5 minutes.

In a large glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine the remaining 2

teaspoons ginger and 4 teaspoons soy sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons of the

cooking oil, the vinegar, lemon juice, sesame oil, lemon zest, salt,

and cayenne.

In a large nonstick frying pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon

cooking oil over moderate heat. Add the tofu and cook, stirring

frequently, until browned, about 8 minutes. Add the tofu, pasta,

cucumbers, scallions, and cilantro to the dressing in the large bowl

and toss.

Yield: 4 servings
