BAKED CURRY TOFU

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, mix together the ketchup, butter, maple syrup, curry powder, garlic powder and onion powder. Add the tofu and gently toss to combine, taking care not to break up the pieces, and season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the tofu on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the tofu is nicely browned and crispy and the sauce has caramelized, about 30 minutes. Serve over brown rice with steamed broccoli and fresh cubed mango.

BAKED MARINATED TOFU

• Slice tofu into 1/4 inch slices.
• Combine remaining ingredients and whisk until well blended.
• Marinate tofu 2-3 hours or over night.
• Drain tofu and bake at 350°F for 20 minutes.

CRISPY BAKED TOFU

Steps:

• Leave the tofu in its packaging and freeze for at least 24 hours and up to 1 week. Transfer to the refrigerator and allow to defrost for one day. Once it has defrosted, remove it from the package and drain, then wrap in it paper towels, hold it over the sink and press with your hands to remove much of the liquid.
• Preheat oven to 350 deg.
• Cut the tofu into 1 inch cubes.
• Press or finely mince the garlic, mix together with all other ingredients in a 9 x 13 baking dish.
• Add the tofu cubes and gently toss to combine with the marinade.
• Bake for 45 minutes, turning the tofu three or four times, until the tofu is browned and most of the marinade is absorbed or evaporated.
• Serve immediately or cool and refrigerate for up to a week in an airtight container.

MARINATED BAKED TOFU

Steps:

• Drain tofu and press for thirty minutes to remove excess water.
• To prepare marinade, mix the soy sauce and water, then add ginger, garlic, and cumin. 1 tsp cayenne pepper can be added for a spicy kick. Put marinade into a medium-sized, flat plastic container for marinating.
• Slice tofu into 6 equal-sized "cutlets" and lay flat, side-by-side, in marinade. The container should be small enough so that the marinade covers at least half of the tofu.
• Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours, turning the tofu pieces over halfway through.
• Cover a pan with tin foil and place marinated tofu on foil, brushing extra marinade over each piece.
• Bake at 350 for 20 minutes, remove and flip tofu, then bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the edges appear golden brown.
• Serve warm or refrigerate and serve chilled later.

BASIC MARINATED AND BAKED TOFU

Steps:

• Wrap the tofu in paper towels and press under a heavy skillet for 15 minutes. If it's still pretty wet, replace the towels and press it again.
• Mix the soy sauce, vinegar, and oil in a container that is small but big enough for all the tofu.
• Cut the tofu in half inch slices and place in marinade.
• Turn it over after about 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Wipe some of the oil from the marinade on your baking sheet.
• Arrange the tofu slices in one layer and bake for 15 minutes.
• Turn them over and bake another 15 minutes.
