BAKED JERK TOFU



Baked Jerk Tofu image

Thanks to Moosewood for their version of jerk tofu, which is what this is based on. It calls for baking the tofu - I prefer to grill it on the BBQ. Grilled tofu is so delicious!! You do need to press the tofu beforehand....that 30 minutes is reflected in the prep time, you may also wish to do that well in advance and just leave it sitting in the fridge. I prefer to make this up well in advance and let the pressed tofu sit in marinade as long as possible before cooking. This can be eaten along with a variety of side dishes or salads, with a little fruit salsa or dip. Or just eat it cold the next day, it's great for the vegetarian lunch box.

Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 -14 ounces firm tofu
1 medium onion, chopped
3 fresh green chilies, seeded
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

Steps:

  • Press the tofu by placing it between two plates or baking pans. Weigh the top down with something heavy such as a tin of beans or a book. You want it heavy enough that the sides of the tofu bulge out a bit, but not so much that they split - you're just trying to press some of the water out. Let this sit for at least 30 minutes, longer if you can.
  • While the tofu is pressing, make the jerk sauce by combining the rest of the ingredients in a processor or blender, puree until smooth and then set aside.
  • Drain the pressed tofu and cut each cake into three slices. Stack the slices and then cut through all three layers diagonally (making an x). This will make 12 triangles from each block of tofu. If you're grilling on the BBQ, these squares might be too small to work with, so you can make larger triangles or strips.
  • Gently toss the tofu in the jerk marinade. If time permits, let this sit for half an hour, longer if you can, tossing now and again.
  • Oven baking - When ready to bake, place the triangles in a baking dish and bake for one hour at 400 degrees, carefully turning each piece every 20 minutes.
  • Grill - Medium heat is best on the top rack so as not to burn. Grill them for about 25-30 minutes.

  • Drain and press your tofu for at least 30 minutes. Tofu comes packed in water to keep it fresh. Dump out all the water and then place the tofu in a strainer. Next place something on top of the tofu to press the water out of it. I typically use 4 plates and stack them on top of the tofu. Set aside for at least 30 minutes or up to a few hours.
  • While the tofu is draining, make the marinade. Combine all remaining ingredients in a blender container and puree until completely smooth, 1-2 minutes depending on your blender.
  • When your tofu is done straining, remove it from the strainer and put it on a cutting board. Stand the tofu on its side and cut into thirds. Next, lay it down with the largest side down and cut into fourths the long way. Finally, cut crosswise into sixths. Now you have a pile of nicely cubed tofu.
  • Add the cubed tofu to a bowl and pour the marinade over the top. Gently toss the tofu to coat. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes and up to 8 hours. If you don't have time to let the tofu marinate, simply toss it in the marinade and move onto the next step. This won't give the tofu time to fully absorb the marinade, but it will still have a nice flavor.
