BBQ Baked Tofu


Recap on tofu rules: Firm or Extra Firm, freeze, thaw, press, and cut into 1 x 2 x 1/2 inch pieces.

Make the BBQ sauce.
Ingredients
  • a few cloves of garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup or so of honey
  • one small can tomato paste
  • couple tablespoons cider vinegar
  • couple tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • a few splashes of liquid smoke (optional)
  • tablespoon or so garlic powder (NOT garlic salt)
  • equal amount onion powder
  • some cayenne
  • salt
  • pepper
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
Mix all together and you have a great homemade BBQ sauce.  But, there’s not too long of a shelf life, so use within a few days.
For the tofu, mix most of the BBQ sauce with a cup of water. Pour over tofu and bake at 375 for almost an hour, until the sauce really thickens.  Turn them once while cooking.  I served this with whole wheat cornbread (follow your favorite recipe… just please don’t make it out of a box), my experimental vegetarian maple beer baked beans, and a spinach, carrot, and curried pecan salad.
