Bean curd sheet, also known as tofu skin or yuba, is a versatile food made from the boiling of soy milk. As the milk cooks, a thin layer develops on the surface which is carefully removed and dried. Originating from Chinese cuisine, bean curd sheet is widely used in East Asian and Southeast Asian cooking, appearing in dishes such as stir-fries, soups, and wraps. Rich in protein, it is an excellent plant-based option for vegetarians and vegans. Low in fat and cholesterol-free, it can be a healthy addition to meals while providing essential amino acids and nutrients like iron. However, certain packaged versions may contain added sodium or preservatives, so checking labels is advised. Its mild flavor and chewy texture make it a favorite for adding substance to dishes without overpowering other ingredients.
