Silken Tofu: available in health food stores, made from extra-thick soy milk, strained through silk. The liquid is not drained off. The result is a creamy product that is ideal for spreads, drinks and desserts. Silken tofu is vacuum-packed and has a shelf life of several months.
Dressing: Place tofu in sieve; drain for 15 minutes, discarding liquid. In blender or food processor, combine tofu, mayonnaise, vinegar, tarragon, sugar, mustard, salt and pepper until smooth.
Spread almonds on baking sheet; bake in 350F 180C oven for 8 minutes or until golden. Let cool. Meanwhile, tear spinach into bite-size pieces.
In large bowl, combine spinach, oranges and onion. Toss salad with half of the dressing. Sprinkle almonds over top.
