Pressed and Baked

I have always been a fan of baked tofu for a quick protein injection on the go! And I have loved the idea of getting a tofu press, but we'll start slow and simply share the recipe. ;)

Baked Tofu (Vegan; Gluten free)
Ingredients

• 1/2 block of pressed tofu (thinly sliced; about 1/16 of an inch)
• 3 TB tamari (use gluten-free tamari if making gluten free)
• 1 TB mirin
• 1 TB grated ginger
• 1 TB sugar
• Juice of 1 lime

Directions

1. Mix ingredients of marinade and soak the sliced tofu for at least 30 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Spread tofu in a single layer on baking and put in oven for 15-20 minutes. It should start getting crispy on the edges. Keep an eye on it in its final moments to prevent it from burning. Serve on top of Asian noodles salads, stuff in spring rolls, serve as faux lunch meat or bacon.
