How Long Should I Marinate Tofu?
The length of time you should marinate tofu depends on the desired level of flavor. Tofu is a delicate ingredient and does not require a long marination time. A general rule of thumb is to marinate tofu for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 2 hours. Marinating tofu for longer than 2 hours can result in a change of texture.
