About Beancurd skin

Beancurd skin, also known as tofu skin or yuba, is a versatile food product made from coagulated soy milk. Popular in Chinese, Japanese, and other East Asian cuisines, it is often used in soups, stir-fries, and as a wrapper for dumplings or rolls. Nutritionally, beancurd skin is a rich plant-based source of protein, making it a valuable option for vegetarians and vegans. It also contains iron, calcium, and other essential nutrients while being low in carbohydrates. However, depending on preparation methods, it may be high in sodium or saturated fats if fried or heavily seasoned. Its texture can range from chewy to tender, offering a satisfying bite in various dishes. With its nutrient profile and culinary adaptability, beancurd skin is celebrated for its health benefits when consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
