NotesDeep-fried tofu (sometimes labeled fried tofu) is available in Japanese markets; it comes in two styles: thick cakes and thin sheets. You want the thick cake (called atsu-age or nama-age in Japanese), usually sold in a 12-ounce brick in the refrigerated section. Many Japanese chefs prepare the tofu by soaking it quickly in boiling water (just a few seconds to remove excess oil), and then blotting it dry with paper towels. I find this step unnecessary, especially for this salad.
