I feel very passionately that “carrots on the mandoline” or “mandolined carrots” should be phrases, though unfortunately, they don’t seem to be. I want to communicate right off the bat that the hard work of thinly slicing your vegetables is made infinitely easier by our friend, the mandoline, but to no avail. Nonetheless, here’s my favorite method for getting crispy-edged (and soft on the inside) tofu, and the recipe for the bright and savory salad I like to pair it with!
I am a little gem truther, all other leaves pale in comparison

1.5 Tbsp. cornstarch
