Preparación

  1. Boil the tofu in the marinade

    • Combine the vegetable broth, lemon juice, lemon zest, black pepper, garlic and soy sauce in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
    • Add the tofu tenders and simmer so the marinade soaks all the way through and the texture improves.
    • Drain the tofu well and let it cool slightly.
