SIMPLE BAKED TOFU

Obtained from my favorite vegetarian website. Tofu is healthy and tasty! Don't let it scare you away. Grill or bake and serve over rice. You can also serve them in stirfrys or salads that call for seasoned tofu. The seasonings are given in VERY generous amounts so reduce them if you desire a milder taste. Considering the amount of salt in the soy sauce, you can completely omit the salt if desired.

Steps:

  • Open tofu package and drain off the liquid. Place a few paper towels on a small baking sheet and lay the tofu block on top. Place a few more paper towels on top of the tofu, and then place a heavy cast iron skillet to press out the liquid. Alternatively you can also top with a plate and a few heavy cans to apply weight.
  • Allow the tofu to press at room temperature for 30 minutes to ensure that a lot of that excess moisture is removed.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Once the tofu has been fully pressed, remove the skillet and discard the paper towels. Slice the tofu into 1-inch cubes and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, onion and chili powder. Gently toss to evenly combine. Transfer the tofu to a well greased baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Roast for 15 minutes and then remove from the oven and flip the tofu over. Return to the oven and roast until golden brown and crispy, a further 15 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!

  • Slice your block of tofu into 2 or 3 even slabs (depending on the shape of your tofu block, each slab should be about 3/4 to 1-inch thick). Lay some paper towels or a clean tea towel on a flat surface, and place the slabs side by side on top of the paper towels. Cover with another layer of paper towels. Then place a cutting board on top of the tofu, and stack a bunch of heavy cans or pots or whatever you can safely balance on the cutting board. The idea is to put a lot of pressure/weight on the tofu, which will help the excess water to press out into the paper towels. Let the tofu drain for at least 15-30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat your oven to 400°F.
  • Once the tofu has drained, remove the weights and paper towels. And use a knife to cut the tofu into your desired shapes. I typically just make little cubes (about 3/4-inch each), but you can cut any size of triangles, rectangles, or other shapes that you’d like.
  • Add your tofu to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and toss until evenly coated. Sprinkle evenly with cornstarch, salt, garlic powder and black pepper. Gently toss until the tofu is evenly coated.
  • Turn the tofu out onto a parchment-covered baking sheet, and arrange it so that the tofu is in an even layer (not touching).

  • 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.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, place tofu into a bowl, and cover with soy sauce. Let sit for 10 minutes.
