Instructions

If using extra-firm tofu, make sure you press it first.
Cut or tear the tofu into bite sized chunks. I like to tear my tofu because it provides lots of rough edges that get crispy when you cook it.
Combine all of the marinade ingredients for your selected flavor into a sealable container (bags or Tupperware both work well). Add in the tofu and toss to combine.
Let marinate for at least 30 minutes but longer is better. Cook according to desired preferences. I love to air fry my tofu but you can also pan fry it, grill it or bake it! ENJOY!
Super firm tofu does not need to be pressed.
