Remove the tofu from its packaging, drain and press it for at least 1 hour to release excess liquid, and then pat it dry with a clean towel.
Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes and place it in a medium sized bowl. In a glass measuring cup, combine the ingredients for the brine, stir vigorously with a whisk and pour over the cubed tofu.
Place the tofu in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 48 hours, then drain well.
Add the olive oil, dried herbs, black pepper and red pepper flakes to the drained tofu and stir delicately until evenly coated.
You could use your vegan feta right away, but if time permits, put in back in the fridge for a few hours for flavors to mingle and develop.
Keep in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.
