Ingredients:
- 2 - serrano chiles thinly sliced
- 1/2 cups - rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoons - sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons - kosher salt plus more for seasoning
- 1 tablespoons - low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoons - fresh lime juice

- 6 ounces - extra-firm tofu drained well and cubed
- 2 - heirloom tomatoes sliced
- 2 - peaches cut into wedges

Directions:
1. Put the serranos in a small heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup of water to a boil with the vinegar, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Pour the brine over the serranos and let stand for 15 minutes, until cooled to room temperature.
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce, lime juice, ginger, mustard and 3 tablespoons of the oil.
3. In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the remaining 1/2 cup of oil until shimmering. Add the tofu and cook over moderate heat, turning, until crisp, 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel–lined plate. Season with salt.
