Como fazer Asian Style Savory Baked Tofu

Press the tofu: Wrap the tofu block in several layers of paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Place a heavy object (like a cast iron skillet or several cans) on top and let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, to press out excess moisture.
Prepare the marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, maple syrup, and cornstarch until well combined.
Marinate the tofu: Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes. Add the tofu cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bake the tofu: Arrange the marinated tofu cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Serve: Serve the Asian Style Savory Baked Tofu immediately over rice, quinoa, or in your favorite bowl. Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for extra flavor and visual appeal.
