I love the tahini in this. It gives the dish a nice nutty creaminess and adds even more protein. The prep takes some time, but the actual cooking process is pretty quick and easy - and all of the ingredients can be found at your average grocery store.
Oh, I also add thinly sliced bell peppers and carrots šš»

I got this recipe from a random German lady in a gaming community and its never let me down:
Mix the following in a small bowl: -1 finely cut scallion -2 tbsp soy sauce -1 tbsp mirin -1 tbsp sugar -0.5 tsp minced garlic -0.5 tsp minced ginger -1 tspĀ sesameĀ seeds (toasted or untoasted) -1tsp Korean chili flakes
as for me, I also add like a teaspoon of Korean chili paste I also have a ginger/garlic paste from the Asia store which I like to use if I don't have fresh ginger and it's just as good! This is for 200grams ofĀ Tofu TheĀ TofuĀ should be a firm sort, drain it a bit and then cut to slices Put in a pan with oil and fry 5 min, then turn around and fry again for 5 min, it should have a crunchy texture Add the stuff you mixed in the bowl and let it simmer for 3 min, that's it!
I usually put it on a bed of salad (mangold, rucola and fresh spinach go so well) which I mixed with only a bit of a light dressing on oil base (like this time I made one of olive oil, herbal vinegar, salt, pepper, honey and rough-grained mustard) But a simple herbal dressing from the bottle is fine too, I just think the sour/herbal taste goes really well with theĀ tofuĀ and you don't even need anything else with it! so if you prepare the sauce and salad as theĀ tofuĀ fries, you really only spend 15min in the kitchen for it

Always a good comfort meal! The tofu is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside once Iāve pan fried it. I like to use tofu thatās been frozen to perfectly remove moisture + the flavor seeps through much better.
For the noodles, I use Trader Joeās squiggly knife cut noodles but add to the sesame based sauce with peanut butter, etc.

šI don't know how well this actually answers your initial question, I think it's more of a counterpoint to some of the stuff people have already said, but here it goes.
In the past (prior to social media or search engines) specific styles, specialized knowledge, and niche awareness actually took effort. You had to go out into the world and find a scene, be accepted, participate in it, contribute to it, and learn from others with specific knowledge within the specific sub- or counter-cultural scene. It took time, effort, and experience to craft an identity. Nowadays people cycle through various identities and trends like commodities because it takes no effort (they're sold to them by social media algorithms, influencers, brand accounts, etc.). It comes to you in your phone without you ever even having to leave the house or put in the time to discover it or participate in it (you just follow specific people or subscribe). You can be a passive observer or consumer, not an active contributor. As a result, you're not invested or tied down and committed to that core identity. You can cosplay depending on your mood or who you want to momentarily convey yourself as, because it's easy. Essentially, being a poser has become normalized. An identity is now something to be momentarily consumed and affected, rather than grown, built, and developed over time.
Granted, it's always been different in regards to "mass" culture and popular trends (both in the past and now). Those are impossible to miss and were always monopolized by specific trend setting institutions, but always by the time it gets to that point, the actual initial counter- or sub-culture that inspired it has already been coopted and has started to disintegrate under the weight and attention of mass consumption.

It's an action deserving of its own nickname. My cat's name is Gomez, but when he crosses his paws like this, he turns into Hodgkins Plumpersocks.
