Tofu can make or break a dish. When you’re looking to avoid meat or chicken, tofu is often a huge piece of the meal and needs to be bold, tasty, and satisfying. The best way to do this is with a marinade sauce that really grabs you. But which marinades are the best for tofu?
Mustard
Mustard goes beautifully with tofu. The strong flavor gives it that much-needed punch and stops the tofu from being too bland and blending into the background of the dish.
Ginger
Ginger is another bold flavor that helps the tofu hold its own. A ginger marinade particularly complements Thai curries and south-eastern Asian noodle dishes.
Sweet Chilli
A sweet chili marinade is one of the most versatile options you can choose. It goes great with most noodle dishes, cheese-based recipes, and salads. It also doesn’t require as much time to marinate as the others.
Just Go With It
