I love seeing food in cartoons as most people do. And I absolutely love recreating the food so it looks and sounds as it does in the cartoons. Sometimes it isn't easy and requires a lot of time and sometimes it can come out within a few minutes after drawing up the idea. In this case it was just combining ingredients that I already had.
Jerky Recipe:
Soft Tofu (I only had three medium-thin slices)
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
3 tbl Agave Nectar
2 tbl Olive Oil (from Sun-Dried Tomatoes)
1 and 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
A few tbl of Paprika (enough to coat it and change the color)
Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
Combine all of the ingredients after you've pressed your tofu and place on a baking sheet. I used my toaster oven and cooked these for about 15 minutes or so in a toaster oven. Afterwards, simply turn on the toaster oven to toast (if you're using one) and bake it for about 10 more minutes until it is darkened to your liking.
Enjoy this and the Ghibli-bits to come!
