If you are looking to take this recipe up a level, try freezing and thawing out your tofu beforehand. This method gives your tofu a little bit more chew, making it “meatier” and a lot more satisfying to eat. If you do choose to freeze and thaw your tofu, be sure to squeeze out the excess water before cooking it. However, if you are just looking for a last-minute recipe, regular extra-firm tofu will still work great.
