Press the tofu: Drain, then wrap tofu in two layers of paper towels and sandwich between two cutting boards with a weight on top for at least 30 minutes.Slice into 1/4-inch thick pieces the size of your musubi maker. Mix soy sauce and sugar in a small bowl and stir to dissolve. Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced tofu pieces and brown on both sides. After 2 minutes, pour the sauce over the tofu. Cook for another 2 minutes on each side until crispy and caramelized. Set aside. Prepare your musubi maker. Cut the nori sheets into one inch-wide strips and lay them on a flat surface, such as a cutting board. Center the musubi maker over the nori strip and add about 1/2 cup of rice to the center, and press firmly. Remove the press and sprinkle furikake on top, then add a prepared slice of tofu. Wrap the nori around the rice and tofu, then seal the edges with a dab of water, if needed. Repeat until you have used up all the rice and tofu. Eat immediately or wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
