Brighten with Citrus: Just before serving, squeeze the juice of one fresh lime over the braised tofu to add a vibrant, tangy finish that elevates the dish.
For a deeper flavor, consider marinating the pressed tofu in the tamari for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
Serve this Garlic Ginger Tofu over steamed rice or quinoa, accompanied by your favorite stir-fried vegetables for a complete and nourishing meal.
A sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or chopped green onions adds a lovely visual appeal and textural contrast.
Adjust the amount of tamari to your preference. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes during the garlic and ginger stir-fry stage.

Apr 30, 2025I love the addition of lime juice at the end; it really brightens up the dish. I also tried adding a little bit of maple syrup for sweetness and it was amazing!
