Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a firm or extra-firm tofu. This will help the tofu absorb the marinade and hold its shape when cooked.
  • Be sure to press the tofu before marinating it. This will help to remove excess water and allow the marinade to penetrate the tofu more deeply.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different marinades. You can use anything from a simple soy sauce and ginger marinade to a more complex one with a variety of spices and herbs.
  • Cook the tofu over medium heat. This will help to prevent it from burning or sticking to the pan.
  • Serve the tofu with your favorite dipping sauce or glaze. This will help to add extra flavor and moisture to the tofu.

Conclusion:

This Hawaiian Sticky Tofu recipe is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy tofu. The tofu is marinated in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil, then coated in a sticky glaze and baked until crispy. The result is a tofu dish that is both flavorful and satisfying. Whether you are a tofu lover or a tofu skeptic, this recipe is sure to please. So give it a try and see for yourself!
