Total Time 2 hours hrs 10 minutes mins
- 1 block extra-firm tofu 280g
- 1 tbsp white miso
- 3 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 1 tbsp oregano
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 3 tsp salt
- 150 ml water
Drain and press the tofu to get all of the excess liquid out of it. (This will take about 10 minutes.)
While the tofu is pressing, make a marinade. Add the miso paste, olive oil, oregano, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, nutritional yeast, salt, and water to a bowl and whisk until well combined.
Cut the pressed tofu into cubes or crumble it into small pieces. Add the tofu to the marinade and stir until well coated.
Cover the tofu and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
