How do I make the tofu skewers gluten-free?

To ensure these tofu skewers are gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce in the peanut satay marinade, as specified in the ingredients list.

What's the best way to cook these tofu skewers?

You can either pan-fry the skewered tofu until browned in a hot pan or skillet, or alternatively, bake them at 355 degreesF for 20 minutes.

Can I prepare the tofu and sauce ahead of time?

Yes, after combining the cubed tofu with the satay sauce, you should cover it and let it rest for at least an hour in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld.

What can I do if the satay sauce is too thick?

If the sauce is too thick after blending, you can thin it out by adding oil, water, or coconut milk and blending again until it reaches a smooth consistency.

How should I serve the remaining peanut satay sauce?

The remaining peanut satay sauce should be served on the side, perfect for dipping the cooked tofu skewers or drizzling over your plate.
