Notes
- Use the correct tofu: This recipe relies on extra-firm tofu for the best texture. If you try to use medium or soft tofu, it contains too much liquid and/or may fall apart entirely. Check out this Guide to Tofu here.
- For the most flavor: Press the tofu well so it’s able to absorb the marinade better for the best tasting tofu feta cheese.
- Allow the flavors to meld: Marinate the vegan feta cheese for a minimum of 12 hours, but note that it tastes even better when left for longer.
- Adjust with flavoring: There are several ways to flavor this dairy-free feta, so have fun adjusting it based on how you plan to serve the non-dairy feta cheese.
