Bean Curd Salad with Peanuts

4 squares fresh tofu [about 1 pound]
1 ts fresh ginger root; minced
3 tb scallions; chopped
3 tb coriander leaves; chopped
2 tb sesame oil
1 dash Tabasco sauce
1 tb dry sherry
1 tb low sodium soy sauce
1/2 ts sugar
3 tb peanuts, dry-roasted

Cut tofu into 1/4-inch cubes and place in a medium bowl. Sprinkle remaining ingredients except peanuts over the tofu. With your fingers toss lightly to blend. Mound the salad on plates with lettuce, tomato, and cucumber. Sprinkle with peanuts for garnish.

NOTE: More coriander, scallions, and/or chopped parsley can be added to the salad or as a garnish.
