Simple Baked Tofu Food

EASY BAKED TOFU

Steps:

• Wrap your extra firm tofu in a paper towel, place between two plates and set something heavy on top - like books or canned goods - and let sit for 10 minutes. This is to get most of the water out of the tofu so it will cook better and absorb the marinade.
• Unwrap tofu and cut into small cubes like the pictures.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees, place tofu into a bowl, and cover with soy sauce. Let sit for 10 minutes.
• Spread marinated tofu evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Bake for 20 minutes.
• Enjoy on top of salads or my Peaceful Easy Feeling Buddha Bowl.

BAKED TOFU

Steps:

• PlateTofu (very important for texture): place block of tofu in between 2 plates with paper towels on top and bottom. Place some thing heavy on top plate (whatever will stay put, I use a big peanut buuter jar or bananas). Alow to sit for at least 20 min, the longer it sits, the "meatier" the tofu.
• Preheat oven to 400.
• Slice block in half from left to right so you have two pieces the same as the original block's width and length.
• Mix remaining ingredients together (adjust anything to taste - sometimes I use lemon juice in place of soy sauce or add minced ginger).
