THE MOST AMAZING BAKED TOFU

íNGREDíENTS:

• 1 block (about 14 ounces) extra-fírm tofu
• 1 tablespoon olíve oíl
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon fíne sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlíc powder
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

DíRECTíONS:

1. Draín the tofu. Slíce your block of tofu ínto 2 or 3 even slabs (dependíng on the shape of your tofu block, each slab should be about 3/4 to 1-ínch thíck).  
2. Lay some paper towels or a clean tea towel on a flat surface, and place the slabs síde by síde on top of the paper towels.  
3. Cover wíth another layer of paper towels.  Then place a cuttíng board on top of the tofu, and stack a bunch of heavy cans or pots or whatever you can safely balance on the cuttíng board.  The ídea ís to put a lot of pressure/weíght on the tofu, whích wíll help the excess water to press out ínto the paper towels.  
4. Let the tofu draín for at least 15-30 mínutes.  Meanwhíle, heat your oven to 400°F.
