Warm Tofu with Spicy Garlic Sauce
['1 (14-to 18-ounces) package soft tofu (not silken)', '1 teaspoon chopped garlic', '1/4 cup chopped scallion', '2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted and crushed with side of a heavy knife', '3 tablespoons soy sauce', '1 tablespoon Asian sesame oil', '1 teaspoon coarse Korean hot red-pepper flakes', '1/2 teaspoon sugar']
Carefully rinse tofu, then cover with cold water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then keep warm, covered, over very low heat.
Meanwhile, mince and mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt. Stir together with remaining ingredients (except tofu).
Just before serving, carefully lift tofu from saucepan with a large spatula and drain on paper towels. Gently pat dry, then transfer to a small plate. Spoon some sauce over tofu and serve warm. Serve remaining sauce on the side.
