Step 1
Whisk soy sauce, mirin, vinegar, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
Step 2
Cut pressed tofu into 0.75-inch cubes. Heat neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering.
Step 3
Add tofu to the hot skillet in a single layer. Let each side sear without moving until golden, about 2 minutes per side.
Step 4
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the tofu. Toss gently and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce reduces and coats the tofu, 3–4 minutes.
Step 5
Divide cooked rice between two bowls. Top with glazed tofu and sauce. Scatter white parts of scallions, then green tops and sesame seeds.
