Decided to try the frozen tofu-method, it didn’t come out quite as chewy as I expected, but still very much an improvement so i’ll definitely keep doing tofu this way. The sauce is just a pre-made Oishi brand teriyaki sauce, with chopped garlic + ginger and some mirin.
Edit: also, before frying the tofu pieces I used soy sauce on them and covered with corn starch to get nice browning going on
That looks tasty. I’d like to eat more tofu, but around here it’s considerably more expensive than most meat, and that’s assuming one can find any.
Have you tried making your own? I’ve seen it done with other legumes.
I can’t say that I have, but for all that I like cooking, that’s slightly more involved than what I’m looking for. I just don’t have that kind of available time on my hands.
If I manage to live long enough to retire, that (and cheese making) might be in the cards though.
