Toppings
- ½ – ¾ cup raw cashews optional

Instructions
- If using the tofu, first marinate it. Place the tofu cubes in a shallow dish and then pour the tamari and vinegar over the pieces. Flip the tofu to try and coat and distribute the marinade to both sides of the tofu.
- Next, combine the ingredients for the sauce, pureeing in a blender or with a handblender until fully blended.
- In a large non-stick skillet over high heat, saute the tofu for 7-9 minutes, turning the sides to lightly brown each side. Once golden brown, remove the tofu from your skillet. (Alternatively, you can bake the tofu with the marinade in a shallow baking dish (roughly 8” x 12”) at about 400 degrees for 15-25 minutes, turning once or twice until all the marinade is absorbed – it won’t get as crispy through oven baking).
