Baked Tofu

 

Ingredients:

• 1 pound tofu, cut into 8 even pieces
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar, honey, agave syrup, etc
• 1 tablespoon light sesame oil or other oil
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon minced ginger
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, or to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350*F

Drain tofu using method of choice.

Coat pieces with marinade. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake for 30 minutes, then turn and bake for another 30.

Notes:

These came out pretty smoky. The brown sugar caramelized really intensely. I think next time I'll try agave or honey. The results tasted pretty nice though, with a firm but creamy tofu texture and a bittersweet coating.
