How To Make Tofu Nuggets?
Before making your nuggets, you need to press the tofu for at least 30 minutes. Do this by wrapping the tofu in a kitchen towel and placing something heavy like a cast iron pan over it. This will release the excess moisture from the tofu.
Tofu Nuggets Variations
You can vary the taste of the nuggets by varying the marinade and the coating.
How To Store and Freeze Tofu Nuggets?
To store them, first, you have to wait until they are completely at room temperature. If you place them in the fridge or freezer while hot, they will sweat and become soggy. After they cool down completely, place them in an airtight container and into the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also freeze them in freezer bags for up to 3 months. To reheat, simply defrost and place in them in a preheated 350 F for 15 mins, or air fry again for 5 minutes.
