BAKED TERIYAKI TOFU
TERIYAKI MARINADE (makes about 1 cup)
Pure Maple Syrup | 1/4 cup |
Shoyu or Soy Sauce | 1/4 cup |
Molasses | 2 Tablespoons |
Toasted Sesame Oil | 2 Tablespoons |
Onion Powder | 1 Teaspoon |
Powdered Ginger | 1 Teaspoon |
Garlic Powder | 1/2 Teaspoon |
Cayenne Pepper | 1/4 Teaspoon |
Use "Fresh" Tofu |
Press out the Moisture |
Slice one pound into 10 pieces. Don't use boxed tofu. | Lay the pieces on a clean kitchen towel. |
Fold the towel over the tofu. | Fold again to complete the wrap. |
Add Some Weight |
Mix up the Marinade |
Press for 2 hours. | See the amounts above. We make a quadruple-sized batch of marinade to have on hand. Shake the marinade before using because it settles. |
Marinate the Tofu |
Bake on an Oiled Pan |
Place the tofu in a leak proof container and marinate overnight using one cup of marinade. Flip the container over once halfway through to insure complete coverage. A square container would be even better than the one pictured here. | Bake at 300F for 45 minutes on a 9 x 13 pan greased with a tablespoon of soy oil. Turn them over after 30 minutes and again after removing pan from the oven. |
All Done! |
Yum Yum! |
You
can refrigerate this for days. It makes a great hot or cold
sandwich and is nice sliced on salads, too.
