recipe comments (Citrus barbeque tofu from AJ)

[Guest guest]

We had a 'mixed' evening grilled dinner with friends (meaning some

veggie, some omnivores) so I made this marinade and used firm tofu

for the grill, it was delicious! I had no apple cider vinegar so I

substituted balsamic, and my rosemary was fresh. I was lazy and

simply put all marinade ingredients in the blender and stopped it

while it still had a little texture. The meat eaters at the

gatering were very impressed and they ate quite a bit of it (it is

OK, I still had enough left for my dinner portion) so there were no

leftovers...

 

I am pasting here since it is not so easy to find (under meat

substitutes, and under soy meat analogs, then under tofu). Thanks

fro the recipe AJ!

 

Citrus Barbecue Tofu

 

1 14-ounce package of extra-firm tofu, cut into 8 or 9 slices

juice of 2 lemons

1/4 cup orange juice

2 tablespoons maple syrup

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 1/2 teaspoon rosemary

2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed

1 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

dash of black pepper

 

Whisk all the ingredients but the tofu in a bowl to make the

marinade.

Put the tofu slices in a flat dish and pour over the marinade.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.

Turn the grill on medium heat and brush lightly with some olive oil.

Grill the

tofu slices, brushing with extra marinade while cooking, about 5

minutes for

each side.
