Step:

  1. Mix Cold Water and Salt to make salty water. The saltiness is up to your preference.

  2. Cut Firm Tofu into small cubes, place in a container and cover with the salty water. I recommend to keep in the fridge overnight.

  3. Next day, discard the salty water. Combine crushed Garlic cloves, Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, Herbs and/or Spices of your choice and the salted Tofu in a clean container. Place in fridge for at least 2 days to allow flavours to develop.

  4. *Herbs & Spices: Black Pepper Corns, Chilli, Capers, Olives, Bay Leaves, Lemon Zest, Basil, Oregano, Thyme, Rosemary, Tarragon, Dill, etc.


Ingredients

  1. 400-500 g Firm Tofu

  5. 2 Cloves Garlic *crushed
  6. 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  7. 1-2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
  8. Herbs and/or Spices of your choice *optional
  9. *Note: This time, I used Lemon Zest, Dry Italian Herb Mix, Fresh Tarragon and Black Pepper
