Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound tofu, firm (Chinese)

1 quart water

1 recipe tofu or tempeh marinade

1 clove garlic

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

 

1. Drain the tofu and slice it into four equal pieces. Place the tofu

and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook for 7 minutes. Drain

and cut into slices about 1/8 inch thick. Lay slices in one layer on a

clean, thick kitchen towel. Cover with another thick kitchen towel and

lay some heavey books on top to press out the water. Let stand for 30

minutes.

 

2. Prepare the Tempeh or Tofu Marinade and add the garlic and black

pepper to it at the end. Pour a little marinade into a flat-bottomed

container that has a lid that seals and lay one layer of tofu in it.

Cover with marinade and ad another layer of tofu. Repeat until all the

tofu and marinade are used up. Refrigerate for two days. If the

marinade does not cover the tofu, turn container upside-down for half

the time. The tofu can remain in the marinade for up to four days. The

longer it soaks, the stronger it will be. If you prefer the slices to

be drier, remove them from the marinade and lay them in one layer on a

dish in the refrigerator for several hours. After the tofu has been

removed from the marinade, store it wrapped or covered in the

refrigerator for up to two days, or wrap tightly and freeze.

 

3. Use in sandwiches as you would use cold cuts, or cut up in salads.
