Broiled Tofu from Student's Vegetarian Cookbook by Carole Raymond  (I use
this recipe when I'm in a hurry and don't want to turn on the oven)

1 block (12 oz.) extra-firm or firm Chinese tofu (in water) 
Prepared Hoisin sauce or Marinade

MARINADE
 3 Tbs. balsamic vinegar
 3 Tbs. soy sauce
 2 tsp. catsup

1. To press the tofu, sandwich the tofu between two plates. Weigh the top
plate with a heavy book, and press for 30 minutes. Remove the weight and
top plate, and empty the water from the bottom plate. The tofu is now
ready.
2. Preheat the broiler. Slice the pressed tofu into thirds lengthwise.
Place the tofu on a lightly oiled baking sheet and spread the tofu with the
marinade.
3. Broil the tofu 3 to 4 inches from the heat for 5 to 7 minutes on each
side, until browned and crisp on the edges. Serve it straight from the oven
or make a tofu sandwich on toasted multigrain bread topped with your
favorite condiments. Makes 2 servings.
