Method
Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with spray oil.
In a large saucepan, bring broth to a simmer over medium heat and whisk in turmeric and salt. Slowly add chickpea flour, 1/2 cup at a time, whisking continuously and cooking until mixture is thick and lump free, 3 to 5 minutes. (It will resemble the consistency of polenta or grits.)
Add coconut oil and whisk to combine.
Pour into the prepared baking dish and smooth parchment paper or plastic wrap over the top of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until chickpea mixture is solidified, about 2 hours.
Cut into strips 1-inch wide and then into 1-inch cubes.
Tofu will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
