A medium or light coat is best. Just put your marinated tofu in a big plastic zipper bag, add a half cup of cornstarch, close and shake well. I like to dump it all into a colander over the sink to shake off the excess. This will give your tofu a fantastic, crispy coating — and it also really, really helps the tofu not stick to the pan.]]> 2017-02-08 20:20:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kayla25/dxu4t0g8s1sy/wish/152611915 https://padlet.com/kayla25/dxu4t0g8s1sy/wish/152612075 Bake tofu]]> 2017-02-08 20:20:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kayla25/dxu4t0g8s1sy/wish/152612075 https://padlet.com/kayla25/dxu4t0g8s1sy/wish/152612147 2017-02-08 20:20:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kayla25/dxu4t0g8s1sy/wish/152612147 https://padlet.com/kayla25/dxu4t0g8s1sy/wish/152612347 Tofu has a lot of water in it — even after you press it — and oil and water don't mix. Using oil in your marinade will actually create an oil slick on the tofu and the flavors will never sink in.
