You’d be surprised with how healthy tofu is. Tofu is made from 100% soy. It can come in silken, soft, firm and extra firm in texture. It has many health benefits, for example, by decreasing your chances of osteoporosis and promote healthy bone growth. Tofu has properties to help with memory, and great for promoting a healthy brain function. Tofu is rich in calcium, manganese, copper, selenium, protein, phosphorous, omega-3 fats, iron, magnesium, zinc, and vitamin B1.

HOW CAN EACH TYPE OF TOFU GET USED?

I recommend buying organic, non-GMO whenever possible for best quality

Silken – Silken tofu gets mainly used in dressings for salads or desserts.

Soft – Soft tofu can get used in many different dessert dishes such as cheesecakes and mousses. It even can be used for smoothies as a thickener.

Firm – When it comes to firm tofu, firm is mainly used as an alternative for meat products and can be baked, fried, deep-fried and even boiled.

Extra Firm – Extra-firm tofu is another soy product that gets used to replace meat. It can be cooked in most methods like grilling, broiling, pan-frying, deep-frying and can even get crumbed to give the appearance of grounded meat.
