    Instructions:
    In most cases , tofu should be well drained and pressed before it is to be used. It is especially important that you drain the tofu for this recipe. Wrap the tofu in a towel, or , better yet, between two plates, and then put a heavy pot on top.

    Mash drained tofu with pastry blender or potato masher. Set aside. Saute garlic, onion, and pepper in a small amount of oil, tomato juice, or water. Fold into mashed tofu. Spoon into oiled pie pan or quiche pan. Bake at 350 F for about 1 hour or until top is firm and edges are browned. Sprinke with Sesame Seeds and paprika and serve.
