I had a picky 19 year-old try this and he gobbled it up, as did everybody else at the table. People were disappointed, but only because I didn't have enough.

I love the crispy texture of the tofu. It's a great contrast to the soft and creamy sesame sauce.

This sesame seed baked tofu was a hit! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sesame sauce was the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and savory.
