Pat off any moisture from all four corners with a paper towel. Crumble tofu with your hands to make imperfect pieces of different sizes and shapes. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of coconut aminos onto the tofu pieces and toss with your hands. Place seasoned tofu in a covered glass container. Repeat with the second block of tofu. When both blocks of tofu have been drained, pressed, crumbled and seasoned, taste a few pieces to see if you want more seasoning, if so, drizzle some more aminos on top. You don’t want all the tofu pieces to be coated, otherwise it will be too salty. Sprinkle seasoned tofu onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and air-fry in oven for 15 minutes. Flip. Air-fry for another 5 minutes. You can also use your air-fryer, adjust the time as needed. Add seasoned air-fried to your meals after it’s prepared. Ex: I’ll stir-fry vegetables and put the vegetables over rice and add the seasoned air-fried tofu on top.
