    Instructions

  1. Take the tofu out of the package and put in a colander to drain. Cut the tofu in half lengthwise to make two thinner pieces. Put a double layer of paper towels on a cutting board, put the tofu on top and another double layer of paper towels on top of the tofu. Put a heavy object on top of the paper towels and let it press the water out for 10 minutes. Remove the paper towels and repeat again.
  2. Whisk together the marinade ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  3. Cut each piece of tofu into about 10 strips. Lay the tofu in a baking dish and pour the marinade over making sure all the tofu is covered. Let sit for 10-20 minutes. Then sprinkle pieces with 2 tsp Sesame Seeds.
  4. Slightly oil a baking sheet with the Peanut oil. Put the tofu on the baking sheet and bake 20 minutes on the first side, then turn and bake 10 minutes on the other.
  5. While the tofu bakes, use a food processor to mix all of the sauce ingredients together.
  6. Serve the tofu hot with the sauce for dipping.
