Baked Tofu Ingredients
1 water pack block extra firm tofu
Marinade:
1 Tbsp rice vinegar or balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil
1 Tbsp Tamari soy sauce
1 tsp sugar or agave syrup
1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger OR 1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 Tbsp minced fresh garlic OR 1/2 tsp powdered garlic
1/2 cup chopped scallions
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp coriander
pinch cayenne
fresh ground black pepper



Marinating and Baking the Tofu:
Put all the marinade ingredients in a jar, screw the lid on tight, and shake until well mixed
Press the block of tofu between an old dishtowel or paper towels to remove any excess water
Slice the tofu in 1/2 inch slices, and lay side-by-side in a flat baking pan
Spread the marinade over and under the tofu slices
Cover and marinate 1 hour or more in the fridge, turning once or twice if possible
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Drain off the excess marinade
Bake 30 minutes
Turn over halfway through the baking
Less baking time, if it looks very done halfway thruough
Broil for a few minutes on each side to give the baked tofu a crusty finish

Baked tofu keeps well in a tightly sealed container in the fridge. We suggest doubling the recipe so you'll have plenty left over for future quick & easy meals. See below for 10 Tasty Things to Do with Baked Tofu.
