Yield: 4 Servings
Recipe by luhu.jp

Ingredients:
1 lbs: Firm tofu,
2 tbsp: Soy sauce,
1 tbsp: Packed brown sugar,
1 tbsp: Ketchup,
1 tbsp: Horseradish,
1 tbsp: Cider vinegar,
1: Garlic clove, minced

Directions:

Tofu [or soybean curd] is an excellent source of protein. The
equivalent of cottage cheese, it is made by curdling fresh, hot soy
milk with a coagulant such as calcium sulphate, a naturally occurring
mineral. It is the tofus reaction with calcium sulphate that makes
it an excellent calcium source.

Slice tofu into 1/2-inch thick slices; place in glass baking dish.

Whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, horseradish, vinegar
and garlic; pour over tofu, turning to coat well. Cover and
refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours, turning
occasionally.

Place tofu on greased frill, reserving marinade. Grill over
medium-high heat, basting with marinade, for 3 minutes per side or
until browned.
