i think it is incredible how different cooking techniques can completely change tofu and you can do basically anything with it.
i’ve been making it myself for a couple years and what i make now is worlds better than when i started. recently i had a japanese bbq tofu dish at a restaurant and i legitimately do not think i am capable of preparing tofu like that myself - so cool to know that there is always new ways to enjoy tofu.
I am definitely also on team firm/crispy. When it’s just some soggy cubes I’m not very happy about it.
Also a big part for making it really great is that often on the day before I already slice it into cubes and then pre-marinate them and leave them over night.
Helps to tune the flavor of the tofu more to what you want to make with it.
Not the biggest fan of tofu but that looks pretty good. Well done!
I also used to not really like tofu until I discovered that I just never had made it the right way

your food looks delish btw
Oh I’ve had some great tofu meals, but a lot of the time it gets cooked in ways I don’t really like it so in general it’s not my favorite.
I like it kinda firm/slightly crispy.

Oh yeah, tofu is a flavor sponge!
