The Ultimate Guide to Crispy Tofu | SNACKS Episode 6

Finally, FINALLY we have a video that's all about how to make crispy tofu, including a "naked" crispy tofu with no cornstarch and no breading, as well as a crispy tofu that is coated and shallow-fried. Consider this the best guide for crispy tofu, because we cover both of the ultimate ways to make it crispy, chewy and delicious. Both are AMAZING and both are a great blank canvas to work with.
If you're a tofu skeptic, this might convince you ;) Ingredients are below!
BREADED CRISPY TOFU
Serves 2-4, depending on how hungry everyone is.
Ingredients:
1 block (15 oz.) extra firm tofu
1/3 cup cornstarch or all-purpose flour
1 cup plant based milk of choice
1 & 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
Salt & pepper to taste (to season the bread crumbs)
Additional seasonings of choice (paprika, soy sauce, rice vinegar etc)
1/2 cup to 1 cup neutral frying oil like avocado, sunflower, canola or vegetable.
NAKED TOFU
Makes 2-4 servings, depending on how hungry everyone is
Ingredients:
1 block (15 oz.) extra firm tofu
2-3 tbsp olive oil for searing
Serving sauces of choice!

This is a great series! Would you be interested in making a cookbook recommendation video? I’m curious to see more of your cookbooks and which are your favourites!

Triangle tofu is definitely superior, and we will die on that hill 💫💫💫

I’m glad to be surrounded by people who respect the triangle 🥰

I've been experimenting with tofu for a while and somehow never thought to press it in pieces!!! Such a great tip, I'm excited to try. Plus the triangles are super cute.

[@lillibraun1528]

I‘m a salt lover/addict and I was wondering if you salt the tofu :)

[@hannahrittiman6108]

Love this series! If you were to marinate the pan seared tofu would you marinate it before or after pressing?

[@Carmen-cv2oi]

I'm sure you are in the know but....freezing your tofu prior to pressing for that extra extra texture 😁
