Note: Marinades are the key to making tofu a tasty plant-based protein. The rule is: the longer you marinade the more flavour will be absorbed. You can marinade more than 6 hours without a problem but you can also marinade for just 15 minutes if you are in a rush. Unlike marinades for meat that need to be discarded there is no danger in using left over marinade as a sauce when using tofu.

Marinating: 6 hours
