Instructions

Press (optional): To remove the excess water from your tofu, you can press it for 10 to 30 minutes before using. Either use a tofu press, or simply set the tofu on a tilted cutting board with a heavy pan on top to press out moisture.

Cut: Cut tofu into your desired shape (cubes or slabs are common!).

Mix: Choose your desired flavor and stir together all ingredients.

Assemble: Add tofu to a bowl or plastic bag, along with the marinade. Allow tofu to marinate anywhere from 1 to 24 hours.

Cook: Fish the pieces of tofu from the marinade and cook as desired (baked, air fried, or sauteed all work well with marinated tofu!).
