Delicious! I pressed the tofu for 20 minutes before using because I thought that would help it brown better. It turned out almost chewy, but in a cool, satisfying way. I used sugar instead of Splenda. I have bought this before in the prepared foods section of my local Korean store; this was comparable but even fresher. I like it cold, too, so I'm glad I made the full recipe even though it was more than I could eat at once.
