Baked Tofu

16 oz. firm tofu
1/2 c. soy sauce
1/4 c. water
2 T. sesame oil
2 T. lemon juice

Blot the tofu to remove excess liquid, then cut into two thick slices. Place tofu slices on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Cover with more paper towels and place another baking sheet on top. Weight it down with some canned goods and let sit for 20 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, oil, and lemon juice. Blend well.

Place the tofu slices in a glass baking dish and pour the marinade on top. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning the tofu once.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Remove the tofu from the marinade and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake until tofu is well browned and very firm, turning once about halfway through, about 1 hour total. Serve hot or allow to cool.

Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator for up to a few days.
