SPICY BAKED TOFU
This healthy, protein-packed tofu dish is filled with flavor. This is a spicy dish. I don't find it overly spicy but I like heat in my faux-meat! I served this with wilted garlic spinach and a fresh salad on the side. Remember that tofu is a concentrated protein, so you don't need as much tofu as you would meat. This dish is great reheated! If you want to be really creative, try grilling your tofu for an even more delicious result!

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).
- Baste top, bottom and sides of each tofu block and place onto pan sprayed with cooking spray (I use olive oil spray).
- Bake for 40 minutes, flip halfway through and rebaste if desired.

- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the tofu from sticking.
- To prepare the tofu: Drain the tofu and use your palms to gently squeeze out some of the water. Slice the tofu into thirds lengthwise so you have 3 even slabs. Stack the slabs on top of each other and slice through them lengthwise to make 3 even columns, then slice across to make 5 even rows (see photos).
- Line a cutting board with a lint-free tea towel or paper towels, then arrange the tofu in an even layer on the towel(s). Fold the towel(s) over the cubed tofu, then place something heavy on top (like another cutting board, topped with a cast iron pan or large cans of tomatoes) to help the tofu drain. Let the tofu rest for at least 10 minutes (preferably more like 30 minutes, if you have the time).
- Transfer the pressed tofu to a medium mixing bowl and drizzle with the olive oil and tamari. Toss to combine. Sprinkle the starch over the tofu, and toss the tofu until the starch is evenly coated, so there are no powdery spots remaining.
