Bao sliders don’t need pork belly to be thrilling. For a lighter and equally tasty option, fill yours with tofu glazed with fragrant savory-sweet seasonings. The tofu gets slightly crusty on the outside and remains soft and rich inside, evoking pork belly. Homemade buns and condiments are absolutely worth the effort, but if you don't have the time to go all in, store-bought subs will do the trick. And honestly, the tofu is so good, you could skip the bun altogether and eat it with rice.
