Spicy Baked
Tofu, "Stuffing", "Gravy" Spicy Baked Tofu You can buy
a package of seasoning (such as Kraft Shake'n'Bake) or make your own
with your favourites such as fine bread crumbs mixed with Cajun spice or chili
powder, salt and pepper. Using one package of firm tofu (about 1/2 lb), press
the extra liquid out between paper towels. Cut the tofu in 1 inch cubes and
dredge in your seasoning mix. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes. (Note, the stuffing,
below, takes a 1/2 hour at the same temperature, so be sure to start it first.)
Baked tofu takes on a firm texture that is quite enjoyable.
