Modified from Cooking Light. Braggs is less sodium. Also they do not specify but to brown the waterpacked tofu MUST be pressed.
To do this step wrap tofu in cheesecloth if you wish to keep shape. Place on cutting board slanted toward sink. Then put a
large heavy plate on it. This will press/drain the tofu. Wipe gently when done.
