Me Love You Long Time Tofu

This tofu is so versatile. I’ve used it in salads, stir fries, stews, soups, or just on its own. The final product is a lovely bite that is slightly crispy on the outside, soft and thick on the inside, with a nice light flavor to it. When you throw it in other dishes, it will act like a little sponge and soak up all the yumminess of your dish as well!

1. Remove the block of tofu from the container and give it a quick press to squeeze out excess water. Blot with a paper towel.

2. Cut into bite-size blocks. I tend to evenly slice up the tofu block.

3. Heat up a nonstick pan with the olive oil to medium high. Dash the garlic salt and pepper in the pan.

4. After pan is hot, about 5 minutes, toss the tofu into the pan and rearrange with chopsticks so that the largest surface area is touching the pan.

5. Leave the pan alone for 5 minutes.

6. Check on the tofu undersides. They should be nicely browned. If not, let it sit a few more minutes.

7. Dash more garlic salt and pepper on the tops of the tofu.

8. Flip the tofu over to the uncooked side and cook for another 4-5 minutes to your desired brownness. The longer you cook it, the crunchier the outside.

9. Remove from the pan and eat or add to your other dishes!

Enjoy!
