Notes
Tips
If you prefer a zestier flavor, you can increase the sriracha quantity. But remember, a little goes a long way! For an earthier flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of sesame oil to the glaze. If the soy glaze thickens too much during preparation, a dash of water will help thin it out to your desired consistency. Keep a close eye during baking; tempeh can go from perfectly cooked to overcooked quickly! Serving Suggestions
Plating: Serve the Spicy Baked Tempeh with Soy Glaze on a plate, drizzling any remaining soy glaze over the top. A sprinkle of chopped green onions can add a fresh, vibrant touch. Pairings: This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed jasmine rice or quinoa to balance out the flavors. Salads: A light cucumber or coleslaw salad can complement the rich flavors of the tempeh. So, there you have it, AH7's exclusive guide to making the most delightful Spicy Baked Tempeh with Soy Glaze. Not only is this dish a testament to the wonders of plant-based protein, but it's also a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. Enjoy every flavorful bite!
