Decided to try the frozen tofu-method, it didn't come out quite as chewy as I expected, but still very much an improvement so i'll definitely keep doing tofu this way. The sauce is just a pre-made Oishi brand teriyaki sauce, with chopped garlic + ginger and some mirin.

Edit: also, before frying the tofu pieces I used soy sauce on them and covered with corn starch to get nice browning going on

I've only tried the freezer method a few times, and every time it's been worse than just pressing extra firm tofu very well.

Looks and sounds excellent, OP.
