Total time: 30 min
Cuisine: Asian
Ingredients: 14 ounces firm tofu (must be firm or extra firm, not soft); 1.5 Tablespoons cornstarch; 3 Tablespoons unsalted peanut butter (creamy not crunchy- unsalted is very important or sauce will be too salty); 4 Tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce/ coconut aminos); 1 Tablespoon sriracha; 1 Tablespoon black vinegar (or rice wine vinegar/lime juice); 1-2 Tablespoons brown sugar (add more or less depending on preference); 1 teaspoon ginger (fresh or 1/2 tsp ground); 1-2 Tablespoons water (optional- I prefer for a thinner sauce); 2-3 diced scallions (optional); 1-2 Tablespoons crushed peanuts (optional)
