Vegan Tofu Teriyaki Sheet Pan Dinner

Cultural Context

Originating from Japan, teriyaki is a cooking technique that involves grilling or broiling food with a glaze of soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. In this vegan adaptation, tofu serves as a protein-rich alternative, celebrating the umami flavors of traditional teriyaki while being accessible to plant-based diets. Today, teriyaki has found global popularity, often featuring in various fusion dishes.
