Many of us bloggers first learned about baked tofu from Ms. Gliding Calm, who is the Queen Of Tofu. Here’s her technique page: Gliding Calm Tofu.
I absolutely love this technique!!
I start with a block of firm (or extra firm) tofu and slice it into about 10 pieces, each 1/4 an inch thick. Then I cut those in half as well and press them firmly with a paper towel or clean dish cloth to soak up the excess moisture. I don’t bother pressing them under books – just get the surface moisture off and you’ll be fine.
I’ve switched out my flavorings from simple honey, salt and pepper to homemade BBQ sauce to Bone Suckin’ Sauce to Gliding Calm’s original rub.
Be sure to spray your pan with cooking spray!!!
Do your best to coat both sides with your sauce or rub and bake in a high-heat oven – about 425-450* for 30-45 minutes. It’s done when you say it’s done 🙂
On a sandwich!
