Imagine this: cubes of extra-firm tofu, pressed to perfection, then coated in a vibrant blend of spices and a light, crispy batter.

The tofu is then pan-fried or baked until golden brown and irresistibly crunchy.

This sticky, flavorful sauce clings to every nook and cranny of the crispy tofu, creating an explosion of taste in every bite.
Vegan Firecracker Tofu is incredibly versatile. Serve it as an appetizer with a side of vegan ranch or blue cheese dressing. Add it to salads or rice bowls for a protein-packed kick. Or simply enjoy it straight from the pan (we won’t judge!).
