EASY AIR FRYER TOFU
My kids are huge tofu fans and we always order fried tofu when we are doing take-out. So we tried to make fried tofu at home with our air fryer and it turned out great and was very easy. I spiced it very lightly because the kids don't like a lot of spice, but feel free to increase and vary the spices.

Steps:
- Cut block of tofu in half vertically and set side by side on a plate lined with multiple layers of paper towels. Add a thick layer of paper towels on top, weigh down with a heavy object (I used my bread box) and press for 30 minutes to remove as much liquid as possible.
- Cut tofu into 1-inch cubes and place in a bowl. Drizzle with soy sauce and carefully toss to coat.
- Combine cornstarch, onion powder, paprika, and white pepper in a small bowl. Add to tofu and carefully coat tofu with cornstarch mixture. Drizzle with sesame oil. Place tofu pieces in one layer in the basket of your air fryer. You might need to work in batches.
- Air-fry at 390 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 6 minutes. Turn tofu pieces over and air-fry until crispy, about 6 more minutes.

AIR-FRYER TOFU
This Asian-inspired air-fryer tofu recipe was the first meatless meal my fiance made for me. It's a wonderful light protein and is so easy to pair with broiled or grilled veggies such as eggplant, asparagus or even tomatoes. -Emily Steers, Los Angeles, California

- For the tofu: Drain the tofu and wrap in a clean kitchen towel (see Cook's Note). Place it on a plate or in a baking dish and top it with a skillet. Add canned goods to the skillet to serve as weights and let press for 15 minutes to remove excess water. Cut the tofu into 3/4- to 1-inch cubes,
- Whisk the soy sauce, sesame or vegetable oil, vinegar, honey and a large pinch of salt together in a medium bowl. Remove 1/2 teaspoon to a small bowl for the dipping sauce if making. Add the tofu cubes to the remaining mixture and toss gently until the tofu has absorbed all the marinade. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Arrange the tofu cubes in a single layer in the air-fryer basket. Cook, shaking the basket a few times for even cooking, until the tofu is deep golden brown and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
- For the dipping sauce if using: Meanwhile, add the mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon water, a pinch of salt and most of the scallion to the reserved marinade and mix together. Sprinkle with remaining scallion and drizzle with chili oil.

- Remove the tofu from the package and drain. With your hands, gently squeeze out as much water as you can without breaking or crushing the block. Lay the tofu flat on a cutting board so the longer edge is towards you, then cut it into four strips. Rotate the strips so that the wider (cut sides) are flat against the cutting board and cut them in half again those you have 8 strips total. Cut the strips crosswise into cubes that are about 1 inch in size (I end up with 5 cubes per strip).
- Line a cutting board or large plate with a clean tea towel (or similar lint-free kitchen towel) or paper towels. Spread the tofu cubes onto it in one layer and lay a second towel on top. Press gently but firmly and change out the towel as needed. The idea is to remove as much water from the tofu as possible.
- In a small bowl or large liquid measuring cup, stir together the soy sauce, vinegar, syrup, oil, garlic powder, ginger, and hot sauce.
- Place the tofu in a shallow baking dish or medium mixing bowl. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the tofu, then with your hand, toss gently to combine. Let the tofu sit for 15 minutes, tossing it again halfway through. Don’t worry if a few bits crumble. Those will turn deliciously crispy.
