Honestly. It&#8217;s one of the rare recipes I could double and still not have a single stick left on the pan, they&#8217;d go right through it. If my kids like tofu to begin with, then they really, really, really like this one. I make it regularly, and not because serving tofu on a Tuesday makes me look good. Because it disappears.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83c\udf3d <strong>A cornflake crust, not cornstarch<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I borrowed the breading from my <a href=\"https:\/\/lecoupdegrace.ca\/en\/recipe\/crispy-honey-mustard-chicken-fingers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crispy honey mustard chicken fingers<\/a>. That&#8217;s no accident. Plain corn flakes crushed by hand, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and that&#8217;s it. No egg, no cornstarch, no breadcrumbs. Corn flakes are slightly sweet, and with the spices the crust actually tastes like something. A layer of cornstarch tastes like nothing. The olive oil does all the gluing: a good drizzle on the tofu before, a good drizzle on the breading after.<\/p>\n<h3>\ud83d\udd25 <strong>400 \u00b0F, 25 minutes, and I never flip them<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>No deep fryer, no air fryer, no pan. The oven does the work on its own while the sauce chills in the fridge. I don&#8217;t flip the sticks halfway through, I think they come out perfect that way. The sauce stays cold and goes in a small bowl on the side: you dip, you don&#8217;t pour. And if you want out of the steamed-vegetables-and-rice routine, these sticks work in a bowl or stuffed in a bun. If you&#8217;re set on the air fryer, I already have a recipe for that, my <a href=\"https:\/\/lecoupdegrace.ca\/en\/recipe\/crispy-air-fryer-tofu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crispy air fryer tofu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udc68\ud83d\udc69\ud83d\udc67\ud83d\udc66 The recipe that made tofu happen at my house My kids love this one.
