Baked Tempeh or Tofu with Mustard-Honey Marinade
Both tempeh and tofu work well in this recipe. The marinade can also serve as a sauce to accompany rice or noodles.
Ingredients:
2-8 or 10 ounce packages tempeh or 1-1 pound package firm tofu
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon sorghum
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce
3 1/2 tablespoons mustard
2 teaspoons curry powder
Salt and freshly milled pepper
Directions:
If using tempeh, cut it into 1/2-inch slabs and steam for 10 minutes. If using tofu, cut it into cubes or slabs and set on paper towels to drain while you mix the remaining ingredients for the marinade in a bowl. Place the tempeh or tofu in a pie plate and brush the marinade over it. Let stand for at least 20 minutes or as long as overnight. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Bake until sizzling and hot, about 20 minutes, basting midway through the cooking. Serve with any extra marinade on the side.
