Vegetarian Tofu Recipes: Basic Baked Tofu
Versatile baked tofu recipe to use in endless vegetarian ways
This tofu recipe was inspired by one that I found on Persistent Vegetarian State, also an excellent source of vegetarian recipes.
Baked Tofu Ingredients
- 1 lb firm tofu, sliced in eight even slabs
- Marinade:
- 1 Tblsp rice vinegar
- 1 Tblsp toasted sesame oil
- 2 Tblsp Tamari soy sauce
- 2 tsp sugar

- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp coriander
- pinch cayenne
- Optional:
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder or minced fresh garlic
- fresh ground black pepper
- chopped scallions
Marinating and Baking the Tofu:
- Make the marinade by shaking in a jar (put the lid on first!)
- Arrange the tofu slices in a flat baking pan
- Spread the marinade over and under the tofu slices
- Cover and marinate 1 hour or more in the fridge, turning once or twice if possible
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
- Bake 30 minutes in the marinade, uncovered
- Turn over halfway through the baking
- Less baking time, if it looks very done halfway thruough
