Basic Preparation

The trick with tofu is to buy the variety suited to the dish you are preparing. Then you simply press out the water and marinate it. Once you have these steps down, you are sure to make a fabulous tofu dish. Tofu needs to be marinated, but avoid using marinades containing oil, which blocks absorption. Marinated tofu is a snap to prepare on an oiled grill, in a grill pan or under the broiler.
