Continuing with the orange juice theme... Tonight's dinner was pretty orangey. The tofu was pretty good, and I ended up eating it with my fingers... which was fun. I liked the slightly burnt taste, as well. The sweet potatoes were better than I had thought possible - the orange juice turned, rather unexpectedly, into a glaze, which was oh so good. Inspired by HHL and A Veggie Venture.
The tofu was cut into slabs, pressed, and marinated in orange juice with a bit of pepper for 30 minutes. It was sprinkled with nooch and grilled on the panini press for 7 minutes, then served.
The sweet potato was peeled and cut into rounds. about 1/2 - 3/4 cup orange juice was brought to a boil in a Dutch oven, and the sweet potatoes were added. The were boiled for about 20 minutes, uncovered, until tender and the juice reduced to a glaze. The heat was reduced, and then they were sprinkled with cinnamon and brown sugar.
