• Sauce:
  • 1 teaspoon ginger juice, fresh, squeezed from fresh, grated ginger root
  • 2 cups mango juice, or mango nectar or apricot nectar
  • 1/8 cup dried chiles, cut in 1/4 inch squares
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons whole sugar, Rapadura, or Sucanat sugar
  • 2 tablespoons macadamia nut oil
  • 2 tablespoons key lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons thyme
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground mace
  • 1/2 small onion, diced

How to make jerk tofu

• Slice the pressed tofu into cross-wise strips to create 3 inch by 1/2 inch strips.
• Place sliced tofu in the bottom of a 9 x 9 inch baking pan.
• Combine all sauce ingredients in a sauce pan, and heat.
• Once this comes to a simmer, pour it over tofu in the baking dish.
• Bake dish in a 450 degrees F oven, no need to preheat oven, until the sauce thickens and most of the liquid is absorbed into the tofu, about 45 minutes.
• About half way through baking, flip the tofu in the pan so all sides of the tofu absorb the sauce evenly, and so both the top and the bottom have a chance to get a little brown.
• Remove from oven, and gently mix the tofu so the sauce covers more evenly.
• Variation: Jerk tempeh. Replace the tofu with tempeh.
