Directions
Bring spelt berries and water to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until spelt berries are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Drain and rinse.
Mix together tamari, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar, cayenne, sesame oil and olive oil until sauce is blended.
Preheat oven to 325° F. Cut tofu into 1-inch cubes. Pour sauce over tofu and bake for 15 minutes. Stir and cook for another 15 minutes, or until browned and cooked. Cool sauce and tofu, then pour over spelt.
