Use tofu that can hold a slice and move it gently. Soft tofu behaves differently from a firm block.

What to try

  1. Choose firm tofu for the sliced version and pat off surface moisture.

  2. Follow the recipe browning step before adding the braising sauce.

  3. Spoon sauce over the slices instead of stirring vigorously.

Make a small adjustment, then check the result before changing the whole batch.
