About Vitasoy USA Nasoya, Lite Silken Tofu
Tofu, also called bean curd, is a versatile, protein-rich food made by curdling fresh soy milk and pressing the soft curds into solid white blocks, much the way cheese is made from dairy milk. A staple of East and Southeast Asian cooking for over two thousand years, it is sold in a range of textures, from silken and soft to firm and extra-firm, each suited to different dishes. Tofu has a mild, almost neutral taste that readily absorbs marinades, sauces, and seasonings, making it endlessly adaptable.
It is a valuable plant-based source of complete protein and is low in calories, supplying iron, calcium, and magnesium depending on how it is made. Firm tofu is cubed for stir-fries, grilled, pan-fried, and baked, while silken tofu is blended into soups, smoothies, sauces, and creamy desserts. Pressing out excess water helps it brown and soak up flavor. Choose tofu with a fresh smell and an intact package, and keep it refrigerated, storing leftover tofu submerged in fresh water and using it within a few days.
