Helpful Tips

  1. Choosing the Right Tofu: Opt for firm tofu for this recipe. When shopping for tofu, ensure the package is intact, and there is no excess water. Firm tofu holds its shape better during cooking.
  2. Soy Sauce Selection: For a truly low-sodium option, look for a low-sodium soy sauce, which allows you to control the salt content. Read the labels carefully to make a healthy choice.
  3. Mirin Matters: Nikiri Mirin is a seasoned cooking rice wine. While selecting mirin, check the ingredients list for added sugars. For a sugar-free version, choose mirin with no alcohol and no added sugars.
  4. Sugar-Free Maple Syrup: Sugar-free maple syrup is a fantastic keto-friendly alternative. Be sure to read the label to confirm it’s indeed sugar-free.
  5. Pan-Frying Perfection: When pan-frying tofu, use a non-stick pan lightly greased with a keto-friendly oil. This helps prevent sticking and allows the tofu to develop a crispy exterior.
