Is there a way to get more flavour into the tofu - marinade etc?

Sauce was nice but not sure the tofu took on the flavour as much as chicken would for example.

Lovely flavour! And a different way of having Tofu than I normally do.

My experience of cornflour is that it doesn't mix well into hot liquids. I query if that instruction is quite right. I felt the flavour wasn't quite right for me. Maybe just personal preference. Still edible, I just felt it was missing something. Thanks.
