Nori Teriyaki Tofu Sticks

Nori Teriyaki Tofu Sticks recipe served on a plate with rice.

Oh my gosh. This crispy teriyaki tofu wrapped in nori seaweed was SOOOOO GOOD!!!! Such an umami bomb, and that perfect texture with the seaweed… ugh you all just need to make it to understand my feelings right now 😭

Just after I made this I was so chuffed I made my tofu-hating housemate try it too, and even he said he would demolish the whole lot. Honestly – if you ever thought tofu was “eurgh”, please try this!! I have faith it will change your mind.

  1. Love this recipe. It’s not clear if the water goes in with the mirin and soya or if the water is used to sip the nori sheets in. Can you help? Thanks
