Ingredients:

1     pound         medium-firm tofu
1     large         celery stalk
1                   scallion
1/3   cup           soy mayonnaise
1     teaspoon      Dijon-style mustard - (to 2)
1     teaspoon      good-quality curry powder
                    Salt
                    Freshly-ground black pepper
                    Warmed pita breads or whole-grain bread
                    Dill pickle spears
                    Tomato wedges

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Drain the tofu and break it into several pieces. Place it in a mixing bowl and mash well with a fork until it has the texture of cottage cheese. Add the diced celery and scallion.
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, and curry powder and mix well. Pour this mixture over the tofu mixture and stir well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve in warmed pita breads or spread on whole-grain bread with dill pickle spears and tomato wedges alongside.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
Comments: Another useful way to prepare tofu is to mash it. This way, it can be used as a substitute for ricotta cheese, for making tofu burgers, or tofu "scramble eggs." A favorite is this eggless "egg salad."
