How to Prepare Sticky Orange Sesame Tofu [Vegan]

Preheat oven to 400°F degrees. Then take your firm tofu out of the package and wrap it in a towel for 5 minutes.
Then cut the tofu into cubes and add to a large mixing bowl. Gently toss with the tapioca flour, salt, and garlic powder and bake for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl add in all the sauce ingredients. Mix and pour onto a saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes. The sauce will start to thicken and reduce.
Turn heat off so it does not overcook.
When the tofu is finished baking, add to the saucepan and gently mix to coat. Sprinkle the to salted sesame seeds on top and serve with rice and some steamed veggies.
