Tofu recipe inspired by a recipe in The New Mayo Clinic Cookbook. Nuoc Cham adapted from The Asian Grill. Note: The original recipe calls for an additional tablespoon of sugar, so feel free to taste and adjust seasoning as you wish. Also, author Corinne Trang notes that you can make the sauce more mild or bold depending on how you treat the garlic and chilies: If you mince the garlic and chilies, the flavors will be stronger; if you slice, the flavors will be more mild.
