Buffalo Tofu 'Wings' image

These make delicious appetizers or a great sandwich filling. They won't fool anyone but they are satisfying and delicious! When feeding to young children, simply omit the hot sauce at the end. They make yummy 'chicken' fingers. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Serve with a vegan dressing.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (12 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained
¼ cup cornstarch
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vegetarian chicken-flavored bouillon granules
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ cup unsweetened soy milk
2 tablespoons canola oil
½ cup cayenne pepper hot sauce
⅓ cup margarine, melted

Steps:

  • Slice tofu into 6 slices. Lay flat onto a clean kitchen towel. Fold towel over to cover tofu completely. Cover with a baking sheet and set a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for about 30 minutes.
  • Combine cornstarch, flour, bouillon, garlic powder, and cayenne powder in a shallow bowl. Pour soy milk into another bowl.
  • Cut each slice of tofu in half, for 12 'wings' total. Dip each slice in soy milk; roll into the cornstarch mixture. Place coated slices on a plate.
  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the coated tofu slices. Fry, flipping halfway, until crispy on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes total. Add hot sauce and margarine to the saucepan and stir to coat the tofu.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can adjust the spiciness of the sauce to your liking and you can also add other ingredients, like vegetables or cheese.

The wings were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These wings were a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best tofu wings he's ever had.

I'm not a huge fan of tofu, but these wings were really good. The sauce was flavorful and the tofu was cooked perfectly.
