hi,

i'm trying to follow a recipe from a japanese cooking magazine and i
can't work out what the 重しをするin 豆腐は軽く重しをして、20ほどおいて水切りする means. I
thought it might mean "weigh" but I'm not sure how one would lightly
weight something!

Normally, it is done
1)豆腐は布巾(ふきん)にくるんで、軽く重しをして、
水切りをし・・

"軽く重しを"するには、豆腐を布巾(あるいは、キッチン・
ペーパー)でくるみ、これをまな板などの上に置き、
その上に比較的軽めの重し、例えば少し水を入れた
調理用パッドなどを置きます。
ある程度の時間そのまま置いておくば、豆腐に含まれる
水が、布巾(またはキッチン・ペーパー)に吸われます。

なお、豆腐の水切りをする方法は他にもあり、それを
知るには、"豆腐"+"水切り"で検索するといいでしょう。
