VEGAN BAKED TOFU STRIPS

This dish makes and excellent Appetizer, Snack or Main Dish. It's also a great introduction into the vegan world, if you want to convert kids or meat-eaters to a healthier lifestyle. They taste great with sauces & dips or by themselves. You need to make a lot though. When I make them, they only last for a few minutes. You might want to double or triple this batch.

Time 35m

Yield 24-48 pieces, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 (14 ounce) packages extra firm tofu
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup cold water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 1/2 ounces panko breadcrumbs (1/2 a bag) or 3 1/2 ounces breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons garlic granules
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Coat 1 cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
  • Get a wide shallow microwavable bowl and put the soy sauce, cornstarch, vinegar & water in it and whisk it until it's smooth.
  • Place it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes and then whisk it again. It should be a sauce like consistency, not too thick, not too thin.
  • Now get another wide shallow bowl and put the panko crumbs, garlic granules, poultry seasoning & sea salt in it.
  • Drain the packages of tofu and cut into strips the size and length of a finger. There should be 8 strips to a package of tofu.
  • Use the Wet Hand-Dry Hand method of soaking the tofu strips into the wet mixture of soy sauce and corn starch with your wet hand, then placing them one or two at a time into the crumbs and coating them with your dry hand.
  • Place the strips onto the cookie sheet and place them in the oven.
  • Cook for approximately 10 to 15 minutes and then turn the oven heat off and let them sit in there to dry out and stiffen up to your likeness.
  • Cut these strips in half if you'd like to make more of them. Serve and enjoy!
