Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Sriracha Tofu Jerky.
Step 1
Start by slicing your block of tofu in half lengthwise, then cut each half into strips that are about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
Lay the strips out on a clean surface, ready for seasoning.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, Sriracha, liquid smoke, and garlic powder, whisking them together until they blend beautifully.
Step 4
Generously brush this flavorful mixture over the top side of your tofu strips, making sure each piece is well-coated.
Step 5
Gently flip the strips over and repeat the brushing process on the other side, ensuring every inch is covered in that delicious sauce.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to place your seasoned tofu strips on the dehydrator rack, making sure they’re not overlapping so they can dry evenly.
Step 7
Set your dehydrator to 145°F (63°C) and let the magic happen for 2 hours.
Step 8
After the first 2 hours, carefully flip the strips over to allow the other side to dry out, and continue dehydrating for another hour.
Step 9
Once the time is up, remove the lid from the dehydrator and let the strips cool for about an hour; this will help them dry out even more.
Step 10
Finally, store your cooled tofu jerky in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and enjoy your homemade snack whenever the craving strikes!.
