Herb-Citrus Tofu (corrected) Yield: 16 ounces of marinade (enough for 2 packages extra-firm tofu) Ingredients:
2 cups water
1 clove garlic
1 vegetable bouillon cube
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dreid rosemary
½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 12-ounce packages extra-firm tofu In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, place all ingredients except tofu. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Strain the marinade and chill for 1 hour. When the marinade has cooled completely, place the tofu in a large, shallow baking dish and cover with the marinade. Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight. Halfway through the marinated time, turn the tofu once and cover it again with the marinade if needed. If baking, preheat the oven to 350°F (150°C). Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven. If grilling, preheat the grill on high heat. Place on the grill for 10 to 15 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time. Remove from the heat. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days. Cook’s Notes:
If you don't have bouillon cubes, use 1 ½ teaspoons sea salt. Uses:
