Tips

Pressing the tofu properly makes a huge difference in crispiness. Toss gently to avoid breaking the cubes. For extra crunch, add an additional teaspoon of cornstarch.

Storage

Best eaten fresh, but leftovers can be stored for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer for 3 to 4 minutes to re crisp.
