Maple-Chipotle Glazed Tofu 1 350g pack of firm or extra-firm tofu, sliced and patted dry oil, for sauteing
Glaze: 2 tablespoons maple syrup 2-4 teaspoons minced chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (vary amount to suit your taste) just over a 1/3 cup orange juice (about one large orange) 2 teaspoons cider vinegar 2 teaspoons soy sauce 1 clove garlic, minced 1/8 teaspoon allspice black pepper Combine all ingredients for glaze, mix well, and set aside. Heat a large non-stick skillet coated with oil and sauté tofu in a single layer until golden brown on both sides - about ten minutes. (When browning tofu, it helps if you don't fuss with it and leave it awhile, rather than constantly moving it around in the pan.) Pour maple-chipotle mixture over tofu and allow it to cook down. The mixture will reduce to form a glaze rather quickly, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the tofu to glaze both sides. Comments (9)

Hi Jeanette, I don't often press tofu myself. Instead, I cheat and buy it already pressed. |

Jeanette, I've only found one so far (but we don't have much variety to choose from where I live). It's Mandarin Pressed Tofu and we like it a lot: http://tinyurl.com/2uh9yh |

Can you let me know how one goes about "pressing tofu". I live in England and have never seen pre-pressed tofu in the stores. Love the blog by the way! |

Thanks to you both for the information on pressing tofu and how to do it. I have learned something new today. Meredith |
