Smokey Miso Tofu

Ingredients:

• Makes 18-20 Thin Slices
• 2 Tbs Red Miso
• 2 Tbs Lemon Juice
• 2 Tbs Sugar
• 2 Tbs Tamari/Soy Sauce
• 1 Tbs Nutritional Yeast
• 1/4 tsp Liquid Smoke
• 1 Tub Extra/Super Firm Tofu, drained and pressed

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425º F. Wrap your drained tofu in a few paper towels, then again in a terry cloth bar towel. Press with something heavy - a cast-iron skillet, a plate with some cans on top, etc, for 10-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix the marinade together.

Unwrap the tofu and make many thin, width-wise slices with a large knife. I got 18-20 slices out of one block of tofu. They’ll look something like this:

Thin Sliced Tofu

Line up your slices on a baking sheet topped with a non-stick baking mat. Brush both sides of the tofu with the marinade.

Let the slices absorb the marinade for 10 minutes or so, then brush just the tops again. Bake for 20 minutes at 425º F. Remove from oven and let cool on the sheet. The tofu should be darkened around the edges, but not burnt. Use immediately or refrigerate for later use.
