I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tofu didn't turn out crispy at all. It was still tasty, but not what I was expecting.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tofu turned out perfectly. The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but that's easily adjusted.

This sesame tofu recipe is a game-changer! The tofu is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and savory. I served it over rice and steamed broccoli, and it was a hit with my whole family.
