    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the tofu into medium-sized cubes, then pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

    2

    Prepare the marinade: in a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, honey (or maple syrup), rice vinegar, and black pepper.

    3

    Place the tofu cubes in the marinade and let them sit for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    4

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Cook the tofu cubes on all sides until golden brown and crispy (about 8-10 minutes).

    5

    Before serving, sprinkle the tofu with toasted sesame seeds, if using. Serve fresh with steamed rice, vegetables, or salad.
