Ingredients

- 16 oz. package Organic Super Firm Prepressed Tofu *
- 1/3 cup vegetable broth *
- 1 Tablespoon low sodium tamari *
- ¼ teaspoon liquid smoke
- Pinch ground mustard powder
- Pinch black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons cornmeal
- ¼ cup panko crumbs *
- 2 teaspoons brown rice flour
- 1 Tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon sea salt (+/-) *
- Pinch black pepper
- 2 to 3 Tablespoons tahini *
Instruction
- Drain the water from the tofu package. Pat the tofu dry. (If you are not using Prepressed Tofu, see notes below.) Cut the tofu into 2” (length) x 1” (width) by ½ “ (height) high pieces (see notes). Set aside.
- Place all the Tofu Marinade Ingredients into a glass baking dish, mix well, then place the cut tofu pieces and mix to coat well.Place in the fridge for one hour to marinade. After one hour, flip the tofu around and marinade for another hour.
- In the meantime, preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
- Place all the Crunch Coating Ingredients into a bowl and mix well. Set aside.
- After the tofu has marinated for 2 hours, drain the marinade liquid.
- Place 2 Tablespoons (+ more if needed) of tahini in a medium bowl. Take a couple tofu pieces and light coat in the tahini. It is easiest to scoop up a small amount of the tahini in the dish, and massage the tahini all over the tofu pieces. You only need a very light coating of tahini.
- Then place each piece into the Crunch Coating mixture and press the crunch coating mixture onto the tofu. Ensure all side of the tofu are coated, then place onto the parchment lined baking sheet. Continue this process until all the tofu has been coated in tahini and crunch coating.
- Place in a preheated 400 F oven for 12 minutes, then flip and bake for another 10 to 12 minutes (watch after 10 minutes to ensure they do not over-brown).
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
