Cut the block of tofu into 1/2- to 1-inch thick slabs. Freeze the slabs for a minimum of one day (a maximum of three months) and then thaw. Place the thawed slices on a very clean, dry kitchen/tea towel and wrap the towel around the slices. Place a heavy baking dish on top of the towel-wrapped tofu, and allow it to sit for 30 minutes. Unwrap and crumble the tofu, using a fork to mash it if necessary, until the desired texture is reached. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well, adjusting seasonings to taste. If desired, thin with a little broth dissolved in boiling water (thinned out it makes a really nice dip). Chill overnight before serving, to allow flavours to blend.
