About Hard tofu
Hard tofu, also known as firm tofu, is a versatile plant-based protein made from coagulated soy milk. Originating from East Asia, it has been a staple in cuisines like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean for centuries. Its dense texture makes it ideal for stir-fries, grilling, or baking, as it holds its shape well during cooking. Rich in nutrients, hard tofu is an excellent source of protein, calcium, and iron, while remaining low in calories and cholesterol-free. As a soy-based product, it contains isoflavones, which may support heart health and bone strength. However, some individuals may need to moderate their intake due to concerns about soy's potential hormonal effects and allergenic properties. Hard tofu is also praised for its versatility, absorbing flavors from sauces and marinades, making it a favorite among vegetarians, vegans, and health-conscious cooks. It’s a nutritious option for adding plant-based variety to meals.
