Diets Tofu is one of those wonder foods that assumes the taste of the other ingredients in the pot. Following is a very versatile recipe. The cubed tofu can be mixed into a salad or can top a rice dish for a light, healthful supper packed with protein and vitamins. If baked longer, it becomes hard and crispy and can be noshed as is, or used as croutons to top a salad. Thanks Chava E.
1 (approx. 450-gram/up to 1-pound) package tofu, any kind (the package I used had just 337 grams)
2 tablespoons Glicks Soy Sauce (tamari)
1 teaspoon canola oil
1 teaspoon Gefen Sesame Oil (optional)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
3 or more tablespoons Gefen Sesame Seeds
additional oil
Cut tofu into cubes. Mix together with soy sauce and leave a few minutes to allow tofu to absorb the flavor.
Add rest of ingredients and mix together. Pour into a small baking pan and drizzle with additional oil — not too much (we want to keep the fat down!).
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) for 30 minutes for a soft texture, 45 for a medium texture, and an hour or more for crispy, crunchy cubes. Mix every few minutes to ensure even exposure to the oven’s heat.
