Details or Sample:
Jazzed Up Tofu

Otherwise tactful and pleasant people have been known to utter harsh words when asked their opinion of tofu. This protein-rich, cholesterol-free soy product is, admittedly, a bit bland. But the right ingredients can turn those same skeptics into enthusiastic tofu cheerleaders!

Start with a block of firm or extra firm tofu. Drain and cut it into cubes. In a separate bowl, mix one teaspoon balsamic vinegar, one fourth cup soy sauce, minced garlic to taste (at least one clove), a tablespoon of ground ginger, one tablespoon sugar or honey, a pinch of mustard powder, one tablespoon sesame oil, and a tablespoon of finely minced fresh herbs, which can include basil, sage, parsley, oregano, tarragon, fennel, cilantro, or thyme, or any combination thereof. Pour the mixture over the tofu cubes and marinate in the refrigerator at least overnight but two nights are better.

Oil a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for at least an hour, turning the pieces over once or twice. They should be crispy when taken out of the oven. Or, if you are in a hurry, pan fry them in olive oil until golden brown. There won´t be any leftovers!
