Found this over the Internet. Tried it (just a couple days ago) -- cuz I never had tofu in a baked form before. I like it a lot.
I think next step is to perform some improvisations (in a few more weeks).
Ingredients:
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/8 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon mustard
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoke flavoring
Directions:
Start 2-3 cups of rice in a rice cooker.
Begin pressing the water out of 2 pounds of extra firm tofu between two plates (by placing a heavy object on top of them, after removing them from any packaging).
Preheat oven to 425 degrees farenheit.
On a baking sheet, mix soy sauce, water, balsamic vinegar, mustard, chili powder, crushed red pepper, and smoke flavoring. Add olive oil, then mix with a fork.
Slice tofu into about 31 one-quarter inch strips and place in baking sheet. Flip so that flavoring coats both sides of the tofu.
Cook for 30 minutes at 425 degrees farenheit. Remove tofu and flip each piece over, then lower heat to 375 degrees farenheit then cook for 10-20 minutes, or until tofu is slightly chewy but not burned.
Serve over rice.
