Cooking: Fake Beef Nuggets

I truly wish you could taste one of these fried tofu nuggets.  They're just so delicious!

What you'll need to make these for yourself:
1 brick of firm or extra firm tofu, drained
flour
vegetable oil

Marinade:
Beef bouillon (I use "Better than Bouillon")
1 cup (8 oz.) of cold water
Cayenne pepper
Garlic and onion powders
Chipotle Pepper Sauce
Worcestershire sauce

Make the marinade with the bouillon, dissolving it completely in water.  Then add the other seasonings to the marinade to satisfy your tastes.

Take the drained block of tofu and cut it into "nugget" pieces.  It tastes even more fantastic if you can get the pieces thin, but I cut some kind of thick and they were still tasty.

Once you've cut up the tofu, place it in a ziploc bag, and then pour the marinade over it.  Seal the bag and refrigerate it overnight.  Whenever you can, turn the bag over to let the marinade get into all of the nooks and crannies.

The next day, pour about 1/4 inch of oil in a pan and heat it on medium-high heat.  When a little flour sizzles, you're ready for the next step.

Dredge the tofu pieces in flour (doesn't matter what kind) on all sides and place carefully into hot oil.  Fry until golden brown on all sides.  With a spatula or slotted spoon, lift the tofu nuggets onto paper towels and pat away excess oil.

I'll try something similar with tofu and chicken bouillon in the future and keep you updated.

Oh!  Don't panic if you break the pieces.  As long as it's coated in flour and fried, it still tastes good.  I tried adding the leftover pieces to a salad, but that reduced the impact of the "beefy goodness".
