No paper towel waste, no extra towel washing, and the container is perfect for marinating.

I thought I was doing it right until I tried her method! She also has other beautiful how-to’s and recipes. I encourage any vegan food lover to visit her website.

Thank you so much!! it really makes an incredible night-and-day difference with texture and flavor. I used to pay $$ for store-bought baked tofu because I was never happy with the baked tofu I produced at home, this has seriously saved me so much money. Love your blog!!

Tamara, How are you pressing it? What kind of tofu are you using? Firm? Extra Firm? Does it crumble when you pick it up?

If you try this method with firm tofu, you will get dense almost rubbery tofu that's perfect for marinades that sautees and browns beautifully in the pan. It should not be crumbly at all.

I always to with method A but I'm totally converting to method B as soon as I get home and get my hands on some tofu! I already love it the first way so I'm super excited to take my tofu love to the next level!
