INGREDIENT NOTES:

EXTRA-FIRM TOFU:

  • You will be using the extra-firm one here for your nuggets because they will not change shape when they cook. Your tofu nuggets will become satisfying to eat if you choose to use this one. For this recipe, you will be pressing the tofu so that you can eliminate water from it. Firm tofu can also be a choice for your use here.

LOW-SODIUM SOY SAUCE:

  • If you use the low-sodium soy sauce in your nuggets, it will still give you a rich taste as well as a salty taste. Your nuggets will taste much better if you are making use of this here. For this one, you may use coconut aminos as an alternative idea.

NUTRITIONAL YEAST:

  • Using nutritional yeast will keep your tofu nuggets lighter, as well as give you a cheese taste. You may also make use of chickpea flour as a substitute.

BREADCRUMBS:

  • We will utilize breadcrumbs here so that your nuggets create a crispy texture from the outer surface. Oat flour can be an alternative idea here for your use.

GARLIC POWDER:

  • Rather than you using garlic, garlic powder will give a good taste to your nuggets that can mix well with the seasonings. Fresh garlic is a good idea for use as well.

ONION POWDER:

  • Using onion powder will not give your nuggets moisture and will give them an onion taste as well. You may cut an onion into tiny pieces and use that if you want to.

SMOKED PAPRIKA:

  • Your nuggets will have a good smoky taste if you are using smoked paprika in your snack. Chili powder is an idea for your alternative here.

BLACK PEPPER AND SALT:

  • Making use of salt as well as black pepper will make the taste of your tofu nuggets better.
