*8oz tempeh, cut into triangles, and triangles cut in half so the triangles are thin (if that makes sense)
*maple syrup (agave mectar may work as well)
*tamari or soy sauce
*dijon mustard (preferably the grainy/chunky textured kind)
*liquid smoke
*black pepper (opt)
Place tempeh in boiling water and cook for 10 minutes. Drain well.
Mix the rest of the ingredients in a cup and mix well. I put them in the order of composition, and the total liquid volume is about 1/4 c. It really is to taste. Just remember it will thicken.
Heat a nonstick pan and put 1/2 Tbsp- 1 Tbsp olive oil, and saute the tempeh on each side until slightly golden. Pour in glaze and continue to cook (and flip, for even coating) until the pan is dry and the liquid has created a glaze on the tempeh.
Serve with the potatoes. Best part- can work well with either syrup or ketchup!

Hello, I found your blog via Veggie Cookster's post regarding this recipe. It's funny that you used liquid smoke. I haven't used it in forever and recently bought some for a specific recipe and now I notice liquid smoke popping up in recipes all over. It definitely gives a distinct flavor to foods.
