Agedashi Tofu

Directions

1. Drain the tofu on paper towels, switching out the paper towels when damp and flipping the tofu on all sides.

2. Bring the dashi and Bachan’s up to a low simmer, then remove from the heat.

3. Move the tofu to a cutting board and cut into 8 even pieces.

4. Heat the oil to 350°F. While the oil is heating, evenly coat the tofu in potato starch or cornstarch, gently pressing to adhere. Shake off the excess.

5. Add the tofu to the hot oil and fry until light golden brown and crispy, flipping as needed, 2-3 minutes. Drain on a wire rack when crisp.

6. Divide the dashi evenly into 4 small bowls and add 2 pieces of tofu to each bowl. Top with sliced scallions and katsuobushi. Enjoy immediately!

BachansGluten-FreeFeaturing gluten-free tamari, same bold flavor

Great as a sauce or marinade on meat, fish, veggies, rice & anything in-between.

Our Gluten-Free Japanese Barbecue Sauce has the same bold flavor as our Original family recipe, but is made with tamari instead of soy sauce. Tamari doesn’t have gluten, so neither does this recipe. Some say tamari has a richer, more refined umami flavor, but you be the judge. Our crave-worthy flavor always comes from simple, clean ingredients. Let's eat! Itadakimasu!
