-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 lb Tofu, firm
4 tb Peanut butter
2 tb Tamari, or more to taste
1 Garlic clove (or more)
--pressed
1 c -- water
1 1/2 tb Arrowroot
Cut the tofu into small rectangles about 1/4--1/2"
thick.
In a small bowl, mix together the peanut butter,
tamari, and garlic. Slowly stir in the water. Mix well.
Place the tofu slices in a shallow dish and pour the
liquid over it. Let the tofu marinate for at least 30
minutes. If desired, you may leave it for several
hours or overnight. In this case, keep it refrigerated
while it is marinating.
When you are ready to cook, remove th pieces of tofu
from the marinade and place them on a well-oiled
cookie sheet. Reserve the liquied to make the sauce.
Bake at 375 deg for 30-45 minutes, or until the
desired crispness is reached (the longer the tofu
bakes, the crisper it becomes).
Mix the arrowroot with the remaining marinade. Place
the mixture in a saucepan and cook over high heat,
stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
Place the baked tofu on a bed of cooked grains (rice,
millet, buckwheat or even pasta). Cover with the sauce.
Serve with steamed or stir-fried vegetables and a
salad.
