Re-Use Your Marinade in Tofu Recipes After Cooking

When you cook meat or fish, you should never reuse raw marinade.

With tofu, though, the marinade doesnt have the same health risks.

Re-add the marinade to your dish at the end of cooking for more of the recipes flavor.

Tofu takes on the flavor of whatever youre cooking.

Unlike meat or fish, tofu is fine to eat raw, so reusing the marinade is no problem.

At the same time, itll also alter it, destroying its more subtle, volatile elements.

Obviously if your marinade contains anything unsafe to eat raw, dont reuse the marinade.
