Bean curd skin, also known as tofu skin or yuba, is a protein-rich food product made from the thin layer that forms on boiled soy milk during the tofu-making process. Originating from East Asian cuisines, particularly Chinese and Japanese, it is widely appreciated for its chewy texture and versatility in dishes such as soups, stir-fries, and wraps. Packed with plant-based protein, iron, and essential amino acids, it serves as an excellent option for vegetarians and vegans. Bean curd skin is low in cholesterol and saturated fat, making it heart-healthy when prepared using lighter cooking methods. However, its sodium content can be elevated in processed or flavored varieties, so moderation is recommended. Naturally gluten-free, it suits various dietary needs while offering a subtle, earthy flavor. Ideal for those seeking alternative protein sources, it brings both nutritional value and culinary adaptability to the table.
