About Agedashi tofu

Agedashi Tofu is a popular Japanese dish featuring lightly fried tofu served in a flavorful broth. Traditionally, cubes of silken tofu are coated in potato starch, then gently fried until their exterior is crisp while maintaining a soft, creamy interior. The tofu is typically accompanied by a warm dashi-based sauce, often infused with soy sauce and mirin, and garnished with green onions, grated daikon, or bonito flakes for added texture and flavor. This dish, originating from Japanese cuisine, is highly versatile and appeals to vegetarians when prepared without fish-based toppings. Agedashi Tofu is a source of plant-based protein, calcium, and essential minerals from tofu, while the cooking process introduces a moderate amount of fats from frying. Its light, balanced flavors make it a satisfying appetizer or main dish, though individuals monitoring fat intake may prefer steamed or baked tofu alternatives for a healthier option.
