INGREDIENTS

1 lb extra firm or super firm tofu
6 tbsp cornstarch, arrowroot, or tapioca starch
1/4 cup plant milk

BREAD CRUMB MIXTURE

1 cup panko style bread crumbs
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp fresh minced parsley

BUFFALO SAUCE

6 tbsp (90g) red cayenne pepper hot sauce, ideally Franks RedHot
3 tbsp (35g) vegan butter
1/8 tsp granulated garlic
1/8 tsp salt
TO SERVE
Vegan bleu cheese or ranch style dressing
romaine, sweet peppers, croutons, avocado for salad

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 425 ºF and lightly grease a large rimmed baking sheet.
If using extra-firm tofu press out the extra water: Slice your tofu into 6 width-wise slabs and wrap in a lint-free towel or paper towel. Place some weights over the wrapped tofu, like a heavy cast iron skillet or books atop a baking sheet. Let drain for about 20-30 minutes before continuing.
Cut your tofu into 18 'wings' or ~1/2" sticks. Cut the block of tofu into 6 slices width-wise if you haven't already for pressing, then slice each of those slabs into 3 slices lengthwise.
