Yield Makes 1 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 package (7 ounces) firm tofu
Olive oil, or vegetable oil, for baking sheet
Salt (optional)
Tomato sauce, for dipping

Steps:

  • Cut tofu into 3-by-1/2-inch sticks. Arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with a double layer of paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Top tofu with another double layer of paper towels or kitchen towel. Place another baking sheet or a baking dish on top, and press down firmly. Weigh down with heavy cans; let stand until tofu has released excess liquid, at least 20 minutes or up to 1 hour. Pressed tofu sticks can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 days.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly brush a baking sheet with oil; set aside. Pat tofu dry. Lightly season tofu, if desired. Arrange tofu sticks in a single layer on prepared baking sheet, spacing at least 1/2 inch apart. Bake tofu, turning halfway through, until both sides are crisp and light golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes per side. Let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature with tomato sauce.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tofu sticks turned out really soggy. I think I might have added too much water to the batter.

These tofu sticks were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of tofu, but these tofu sticks were actually really good! I loved the crispy texture and the flavor was really savory.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tofu sticks turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I served them with a dipping sauce made of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil and they were absolutely delicious.

These tofu sticks were a bit too crispy for my taste, but the flavor was great. I think I'll try baking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I love these tofu sticks! They're so easy to make and they're always a hit with my friends and family. I usually serve them with a dipping sauce made of soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil, but they're also great on their own.
