HOLIDAY ROAST

Ingredients

• 60 ml Tamari sauce, MRSJP
• 120 ml Coconut sugar, organic, Madhava
• 120 ml Pineapple juice
• 1 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
• 560 g Tofu, raw (not silken), not cooked, firm, not drained

Method

1. Press the tofu for at least 30 minutes.
2. Score the pressed tofu with a sharp knife in a diagonal pattern. Place tofu in a container.
3. Whisk together all of the glaze ingredients in a medium-sized pot.
4. Bring to a simmer on medium heat, then reduce to low. Let simmer for 2 minutes.
5. Pour about half of the glaze over the tofu. Let marinate for at least 1 hour, flipping halfway and basting with the marinade occasionally. You can also marinate overnight.
6. Continue to simmer the remaining glaze for an additional 4-5 minutes, until thickened and reduced by about half (do not cover with lid.)
7. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
8. Remove the tofu from the marinade and place on the baking sheet. Brush with about half of the thickened glaze.
9. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the edges have browned.
10. Brush the remaining glaze on top and enjoy warm!
