TOFU CRUMBLES -- ASIAN STYLE



Tofu Crumbles -- Asian Style image

We use these a lot on nights that I just don't feel like cooking much. Added to a stir fry with a bit of hot rice, it's a perfect lighter meal. I suppose you could adjust the recipe to give the tofu a different flavor, just change the mix of liquids and flavorings, but prepare and bake as directed. Read the note! You don't want to end up with a sloppy mess.

Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon ginger, minced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 teaspoon dry crushed red pepper
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 lbs extra firm tofu, pressed to drain water and dried

Steps:

  • NOTE: It is very important to press and dry the tofu well, otherwise, this will be a big sloppy mess instead of crumbles.
  • Combine all ingredients EXCEPT TOFU in a pan and simmer gently for 5-10 minutes, just until the sauce becomes slightly thick.
  • Set aside the sauce to cool a bit.
  • While the sauce is cooling, crumble the pressed and dried tofu into a bowl.
  • Toss the tofu with a bit of the cooled sauce, adding sauce in small increments until the tofu is uniformly colored, but with no liquid at the bottom of the bowl.
  • You will have some leftover sauce that you can refrigerate and use later.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Put parchment down on a sheet pan and carefully spread the sauced tofu on it.
  • Bake until the tofu looks dry and a bit crumbly, but be careful not to overcook or burn it.
  • As the tofu bakes, turn it over occasionally with a spatula to help the "drying" process.
  • Baking should take at least 20 minutes, but may take much longer depending on how well you were able to press out the water.
  • When the tofu crumbles appear sufficiently dry, take them out of the oven and add them to sauteed peppers, bean sprouts, celery, mushrooms, spinach, eggs, or whatever!
  • Enjoy!

  • First, drain your tofu from the package and allow it to sit for at least 10 minutes to drain the water. I usually, prep my tofu hours before by letting it sit in a folded paper towel replacing it periodically. Next ,carefully cut your tofu into cube shapes and soak in a paper towel to drain excess water. Then place the cubes inside of a ziploc bag, add cornstarch to the bag and carefully move the bag around allowing the tofu to soak up as much of the starch as possible. The more cornstarch you use, the more crunch you get of your tofu. Next, add your your sauce to a mixing bowl, mix well and set aside. Afterwards, in a pan turn on medium high and add the cubes cooking 2-3 minutes on each side or until you reach your desired crunchy texture.
  • Once completed allow the cubes to drain grease in a small strainer. Meanwhile add sauce to another pan and turn on high. Once it starts to bubble, immediately turn off and stir in your crumbles moving them around in the pan until they soak up the sauce. All done! Serve with rice, broccoli or whatever your choice of side may be.Top with scallions, sesame seeds, leeks or your favorite toppings . Enjoy!
