(Marinating from 1 hour to 24 and accounts for the prep time. ) This was my tasty intro to tofu ( a good, low-fat, meatless source of protein ) from Marion Kane's TORONTO STAR food columns and her BEST OF FOOD COOKBOOK. Ms. Thank you both. Ingredients:

1/4 cup soy sauce or 1/4 cup tamari soy sauce |
3 tablespoons rice vinegar |
3 tablespoons maple syrup |
1/2 cup orange juice |
2 teaspoons finely grated orange rind |
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh gingerroot |
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
chopped fresh coriander or parsley |
Directions:
1. Cut tofu into bite-sized squares.
2. Place in shallow baking dish or casserole.
3. In small bowl, combine soy, vinegar, maple syrup, orange juice, orange rind, ginger, garlic and mustard.
4. Pour over tofu.
5. Marinate at least 1 hour OR up to 24.
