Sharing a super easy tofu and celery salad that is perfect for hot summer days. The tender tofu and crisp celery are mixed with a savory and tart dressing with plenty of aromatics and heavenly chili oil, using minimal ingredients to create maximum flavor! It’s a perfect dish for making ahead too because it tastes even better the next day. {Gluten-Free Adaptable, Vegan}To make the dish gluten-free, use rice vinegar to replace Chinkiang vinegar.
