Set a large cast iron pan over high heat. In a large mixing bowl, toss cabbage slices in oil. Once pan is blistering hot, add just enough cabbage to cover the bottom in an even layer. (Work in small batches to prevent pan from cooling and allowing cabbage to steam.) There should be a fair amount of popping and crackling noises coming from the pan.Allowing cabbage to char for 2 minutes before stirring, and then allowing to cook 2 minutes between each stir, cook for 8 minutes. Carefully transfer from pan into a medium mixing bowl. Repeat until all cabbage has been charred and transferred to mixing bowl.To the bowl, add spicy fermented tofu vinaigrette, sliced basil, and black sesame seeds. Toss to combine and season with salt and red pepper flakes to taste. Salad can be served warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Garnish with black sesame seeds and toasted garlic.Spicy Fermented Tofu Vinaigrette Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
