Vegetarian Picnic Recipes:
Marinated Baked Tofu
Looking for vegetarian picnic recipes that are easy to make and taste great? Marinated Baked Tofu is just the thing! You mix the marinade right in the baking dish, so there is just one item to wash!
You can eat this hot if you choose, but it also tastes great cold, packed in a picnic basket.
This recipe is easily multiplied.
Be sure to allow for marinating time. The longer it marinates, the better it will taste. I like to marinate it all day, turning it occasionally.
1/4 cup/60 mL tamari or soy sauce
2 Tbsp/30 mL dark sesame oil
2 Tbsp/30 mL minced fresh ginger
1 lb/500 g extra-firm tofu
Get out a glass baking dish.
Put the tamari, sesame oil and ginger in the dish and stir to combine.
Cut the tofu into slices (each about 1/2 inch/1 cm thick).
Arrange the slices, in a single layer, in the baking dish.
Turn the slices so that both sides are coated with marinade.
Refrigerate and marinate for at least 30 minutes. (The longer, the better.)
Preheat the oven to 375F/190C.
Turn the tofu over in the marinade one more time.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Serve hot - or let cool, then refrigerate and eat cold.
