Time P1DT15m

Yield 1 lb tofu, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup soy sauce
1 small pear, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
3 garlic cloves
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 lb extra firm tofu, drained, pressed and cut into 1/2-inch slabs
1/4 cup sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients (except tofu and sesame seeds) in a blender and puree. Pour into a shallow dish.
  • Place tofu in the marinade, turning to coat. Cover and place in the fridge for 24 hours - 5 days.
  • Remove tofu from the marinade (you can use it to make a sauce if you want, since there's no raw meat involved) and roll in the sesame seeds.
  • Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium high heat (I don't recommend an actual barbecue for this unless the grate is really narrow). Grease well.
  • Place tofu in one layer on the pan and cook 6 minutes, then carefully turn over and cook another 5-6 minutes.
  • Serve as part of a rice or noodle bowl, or with a stir fry. This also tastes great as part of a sandwich or wrap.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tofu: For this recipe, you'll want to use firm or extra firm tofu. This will help it hold its shape during the broiling process.
  • Press the tofu: Pressing the tofu will help remove excess water and make it more flavorful. You can use a tofu press or simply place the tofu between two plates with a weight on top.
  • Marinate the tofu: Marinating the tofu will help it absorb flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple mixture of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and ginger is a good option.
  • Broil the tofu: Broiling the tofu will give it a slightly crispy exterior and a tender interior. Be sure to keep an eye on the tofu so that it doesn't burn.
  • Serve immediately: Broiled tofu is best served immediately. You can enjoy it on its own or with a variety of dipping sauces.

Conclusion:

Korean-style broiled tofu is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. With its crispy exterior and tender interior, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. Experiment with different marinades and dipping sauces to find your favorite combination.
