Before you buy
Tofu is a
very good source of protein so why not purchase tofu
with the most protein and get value for your money.
Nigari tofu will always give
the most grams of protein per pound of tofu.
Soy Dairy tofu has 13 grams per 3 oz. Serving.
Other tofu made with calcium sulfate has
approximately 5 grams protein per 3 oz. Serving.
Which One to Buy
The firm style will work for most
every recipe. When blending for a pudding, pies,
etc. it will work fine but take a little longer to
blend and a little more liquid. Firm styles are
best for stir frying because it will hold up
better even when cut into very small cubes. Firm
style tofu is best when barbecuing as it holds its
shape.
Soft styles do great when
you want a soft mouth feel in texture for those
more subtle dishes. Soft tends to blend better or
quicker for pudding and pie fillings.

microwave oven right in it's sauce for a very
simple, hot meal. Broil it for a firmer surface
and texture. Our already baked tofu is great as a
main course or to add protein to a favorite Chile

Food. Already seasoned with several herbs you
don't need to do much for a great tasting meal.
