About Firm tofu
Firm tofu, a staple of East Asian cuisine, is a highly versatile plant-based protein made from coagulated soybean milk. Known for its dense texture and ability to absorb flavors, it is widely used in stir-fries, soups, and salads. A rich source of protein, iron, and calcium, firm tofu is low in saturated fat and contains no cholesterol, making it a heart-healthy alternative to animal-based proteins. Boasting essential amino acids, it supports muscle development and overall health. Additionally, firm tofu is a good source of isoflavones, compounds thought to promote bone health and may have antioxidant properties. Gluten-free and vegan-friendly, it suits various dietary needs. However, some individuals sensitive to soy should consume tofu in moderation, and heavily processed tofu products may carry additives. Overall, firm tofu remains a nutritious, adaptable option for health-conscious cooking.
