Transform tofu into a flavorful and crispy meal with our 8-ingredient chili miso tofu marinade. Tearing the tofu into uneven bite-size pieces gives this miso tofu a unique texture. The rough edges of the torn pieces will crisp up better in the oven, giving the tofu a more satisfying crunch.
Take a glass bowl and mix all ingredients (miso paste, tamari, sriracha, onion powder, garlic powder, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and sunflower oil). Mix it with a spoon or spatula.
Marinating the tofu
Use your fingers and tear the tofu slowly and gently. You can tear them first in half or tear off larger pieces, then create bite-size tofu at the end.
Take a glass bowl and arrange the tofu pieces evenly.
Pour the marinade over them and gently mix them. We use a silicone brush to make sure they are thoroughly covered.
Let the tofu marinate for 15 minutes.
Baking miso tofu
Preheat the oven to 390 Fahrenheit (ca. 199 °C).
Place the marinated tofu bites on a non-stick baking sheet/mat or parchment paper in a baking tray.
Bake them in the oven for 15 minutes.
Take it out, toss and turn them to ensure all edges will get crispy.
