SMOKY TOFU, LETTUCE, AND TOMATO SANDWICHES (VEGAN BLTS)



Smoky Tofu, Lettuce, and Tomato Sandwiches (Vegan BLTs) image

Tofu, quickly seared and seasoned, is the "meat" of this hearty, comforting sandwich. Of course, actual bacon can be subbed in for the meat-eaters in the house!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 14-ounce block extra-firm tofu, cut in 1/4-inch slices (no need to drain)
Pinch kosher salt
1/4 cup Tamari or low-sodium soy sauce* (for gluten-free choose a GF Tamari)
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
8 slices of your favorite crusty artisan bread (toasted) (for gluten-free use your favorite GF sandwich bread)
Smoky Seared Tofu
2 large ripe tomatoes (sliced)
8 green leaf lettuce leaves (washed and dried) (butter lettuce is another fabulous choice)
1/4 cup mayonnaise (vegans use a mayo alternative such as Vegenaise)
Salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Set a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the olive oil. When the olive oil is hot, add the tofu along with a pinch of salt. The tofu will hiss and jump around a bit, so watch out! Cook, flipping occasionally, until golden brown on both sides, 8-10 minutes. While the tofu cooks, mix the Tamari, pure maple syrup, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. When the tofu is done, reduce the heat to low and pour the Tamari mix over the top. Cook, flipping occasionally, until the sauce has reduced and thickened, about 1 minute. Transfer the smoky seared tofu to a plate.
  • Toast the bread then smear each piece with mayonnaise, as little or as much as you like - 2 teaspoons to 2 tablespoons or so. Top four pieces of bread with tomatoes; sprinkle with a touch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the tofu, then pile with the lettuce. Top with remaining slices of bread. Cut in half and serve.

TLT (TOFU, LETTUCE & TOMATO SANDWICH)



Tlt (Tofu, Lettuce & Tomato Sandwich) image

A smoky, mustard-chipotle sauce gives this baked tofu enough character to please even the most avid bacon fan. Make it a meal: add some oven fries and a tall glass of minty iced tea. To make ahead, prepare through step 4. Wrap the baked tofu in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Note: canned chipotle peppers (smoked jalapeños) add heat and smokiness to dishes: the adobo sauce alone adds a spicy zest without extra heat. Look for small cans in the Mexican food section in large supermarkets. Once opened they will keep for up to 2 weeks in refrigerator or 6 months in the freezer. (I always freeze what I don't use in a recipe.)

  • Drain and dry the block of tofu with paper towels. Wrap the block of tofu in a thick layer of paper towels and place on a plate. Lay another flat-bottomed plate (or small cutting board) on top of the tofu and place a can or two of beans on the plate/cutting board to weigh down the tofu, which will help press excess moisture from it. Let sit for 30 minutes.
  • Cut the tofu into ½-inch-thick slices. Spread half of the BBQ sauce in a shallow baking dish. Lay the tofu slices in the dish and top with the remaining half of the BBQ sauce, tossing each slice to make sure all sides are coated. Let marinate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Spread the marinated tofu on the baking sheet, reserving the remaining BBQ sauce for brushing. Bake for 25 minutes. Flip the slices, brush with the reserved BBQ sauce, and bake for 25 more minutes, until browned and crisp.
  • Toast the bread. Layer 4 of the bread pieces with lettuce, sliced tomato, and avocado. Divide the sliced tofu among the 4 and top with the remaining 4 pieces of bread. Serve immediately.

  • Cut Tofu: Remove tofu from the package. Turn tofu on its side and slice in thirds, creating 3 large slabs. Gently press each slab between a clean dish towel or paper towels to remove some of the excess water. Cut the slabs in half. You should have six pieces that look like large domino (rectangular) shapes.
  • Marinade Tofu: In a medium sized shallow dish, mix together the marinade. Place tofu in the dish and let soak for about 30 minutes – 1 hour turning carefully once or twice in between.
  • Saute Onions: Once the hour is almost up, caramelize your onions using 1 tablespoon oil. Heat oil over medium heat, add onions, turn down heat to medium low, stir often and cook until they start to brown and caramelize. May take 10 to 15 minutes or so. Once done, set aside.
  • Cook Tofu: In same skillet, heat remaining oil and cook tofu over medium high heat. Once tofu has browned, about 5 minutes, gently flip and brown the other side. It’s ok if it gets a little crispy too! If you feel it is drying out too much, add some of the juices from the bowl it marinated in for extra moisture. When done, remove from heat.
