• Remove tempeh for the packages and cut each piece in half.
• Place in a large saucepan and cover in water.
• Boil for 20 minutes.
• Drain water and set it aside to cool.
• Set cooled tempeh on a cutting board and cut into identical thin strips like bacon.
• In a refrigerator-safe container, whisk together the tempeh bacon marinade, and pour a small amount into the container's base.
• Then, add the sliced tempeh pieces, pour more marinade over the top, and repeat until all the tempeh and marinade are in the container.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• I always flip it over in the refrigerator every time I go in the refrigerator for anything.

Air Fryer Cooking

• Spray water in the base of the air fryer.
• Add the marinated strips of tempeh and reserve extra marinade
• Cook in batches in a single layer at 370 degrees for 7 minutes; flipping each strip after 3 minutes.
• Return cooked pieces into the container with the extra marinade. 
• Repeat until all the pieces are cooked.

Baking 

• Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
• Place the tempeh bacon strips in a single layer, leaving a little space between each strip.
• Cook at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes until tempeh is browned.
• Now, return the cooked tempeh to the container with the extra marinade.

Skillet

• In a large skillet, heat the pan to medium-low.
• Place the tempeh strips in the pan, not overlapping each other. 
• As the bacon is cooked, flip the pieces over every 5-7 minutes, adding small amounts of the marinade into the pan as the bacon cooks and browns, until all the marinade is absorbed.
