BBQ tofu is a flavorful plant-based dish that combines the smoky, tangy taste of barbecue sauce with the satisfying texture of tofu. Tofu, made from soybeans, is an excellent source of plant-based protein, iron, and calcium, making it a staple in vegetarian and vegan diets. Typically, firm or extra-firm tofu is marinated in a rich barbecue sauce and then baked, grilled, or pan-fried to achieve a crispy exterior while maintaining its tender center. Originating from the fusion of Asian and American cuisines, BBQ tofu reflects the versatility of tofu in adapting to global culinary styles. While the tofu itself is low in calories and free of cholesterol, the barbecue sauce can contain added sugars and sodium, so opting for a homemade or low-sugar version can help keep the dish more nutritious. BBQ tofu is a delicious, hearty, and health-conscious alternative to traditional barbecue meats.
