Cut the tofu into 2 cm cubes and set aside.
Bring 500 ml water to a boil over high heat, add the tofu, and boil 1–2 minutes to remove the beany taste and firm the tofu.
Lift the tofu out, drain, and put it in a bowl.
Mix 15 ml light soy sauce, 5 ml sesame oil, 5 ml vinegar and 2 g sugar (the last two optional) in a small bowl, add the garlic, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
Pour the dressing over the tofu, sprinkle with the scallion, and add 5 ml chili oil if you like. Toss gently and serve.
