Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Wrap tofu snugly in a couple of layers of paper towels and place on a cutting board or flat plate. Cover with a second cutting board or plate and balance a heavy can or two on top to weigh down the plate and press down on the tofu; set aside to let drain for 30 minutes. Remove and dry the tofu.
3. Cut tofu into 1/3 inch slabs, brush them with sesame oil, and arrange them in a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet or dish. Bake, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and just crisp, about 40 minutes total.
