DIRECTIONS
- Prep your tofu: Press tofu overnight and cut it into your desired shapes. Set side.
- Make the marinade: Whisk together the marinade ingredients in a ziploc bag until fully combined.
- Add the tofu: add in your tofu pieces in the ziplock bag and let marinate overnight.
- Cook as desired and ENJOY!
Cooking Options:
- As desired, you can use the leftover marinade to make a sauce for your tofu (this works with all of the marinades EXCEPT the peanut marinade). Add it into a saucepan with a cornstarch slurry (2 tablespoons of water + 1/2 tablespoon of cornstarch) and cook over medium heat until thickened (about 3-5 minutes). It makes for a great sauce to put on top of the tofu!
- Air-fried tofu:
- toss the marinated tofu pieces that have been marinated in a bit of cornstarch (1/4 cup)
- put in a pre-heated air fryer to cook for about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through
