Notes
- Use super-firm or extra-firm tofu: These contain the least amount of added moisture, so they are best when you want to achieve the crispiest baked tofu.
- Press the tofu: This will help remove any excess liquid to crisp it up even more.
- Don’t skip the starch: This coats the tofu and becomes crispy when baked.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan: It needs to be in a single layer, with space in between to allow for the best air circulation and ultimate crispiness.
