Tofu silken

Tofu is an inexpensive and remarkably versatile high protein food made from soybeans. But unlike most other protein foods, tofu is low in fats, especially saturated fats and low in calories which makes it an excellent option if you’re watching your waistline.

Silken tofu is best for blending into sauces, creams, smoothies, baking, mayo and dressings, or in miso soup. You do not press or fry silken tofu. Regular tofuis also labeled with different consistencies from softthrough to extra firm depending on how much water has been pressed out of it. 

From smooth, silken tofu with delicate toppings to piping-hot fried satchels in a robust sauce, tofu provides a versatile canvas for the intricate flavors and textures that Asian and vegetarian cooks have long enjoyed. It is very easy to digest and is an excellent food for all ages. Use as a meat substitute in BBQs, stir fries and soups. Flavours are only restricted by your imagination!
