Baked Tofu
Posted Wednesday, January 5, 2011 at 11:08 AM

Hey; I brought some fun vegan food back from Trader Joe's in California, and one of the items was a block of Baked Tofu. I'm looking for some recipe ideas on how to put it into a meal!

Thank you in advance!

I do one where I slice regular, non-baked chinese tofu, dredge it in tamari, bake it for a while & then I slather it with bbq sauce on both sides (Baby Ray's - kinda high in sugar) and I bake it for a little while more - maybe about 15 minutes after adding the sauce I think. I've only done it a few times, but it turned out great & it was super easy. Since yours is already baked I would think you would only need to re-bake it til you get a nice bubbly reduction going with the sauce.

I looked at fatfreevegan.com and found this one:
Chow Fun Noodles with Tofu
Yield: 4 servings

A very easy stir-fry to prepare. You can use your favorite cooked pasta in place of the Chow Fun noodles.

8 ounces baked tofu, diced
2 ea 12 oz. pkg Chow Fun noodles–or or any wide noodle, cooked
1 stalk celery; sliced
2 carrots, sliced & slivered
1 c green onion, chopped
1 pkg. bean sprouts
1 tsp. chopped garlic
1 tb toasted sesame seeds

Seasonings:

1/4 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. shoyu or soy sauce
1 cup water
1 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp. mushroom sauce

Stir-fry vegetables and garlic in a non-stick wok or skillet, adding a little water to prevent sticking. Stir-fry only until slightly tender, about 2 minutes. Add seasonings, noodles, and tofu and cook another 2 minutes. Do not overcook vegetables.

Arrange the noodles on, and garnish with sesame seeds and chinese parsley.

I enjoy baked tofu in stir-frys, on top of salads, or sliced thin in sandwiches with lots of veggies. It's so versatile, you can add it to almost anything.
