Tofu cubes are a versatile, protein-rich food derived from soybeans, a staple in East Asian cuisine. Made by coagulating soy milk and pressing it into solid blocks, tofu is naturally low in calories and cholesterol-free while offering a complete source of plant-based protein, making it an excellent option for vegetarians and vegans. Rich in iron, calcium, and magnesium, tofu supports bone and muscle health, with added benefits from its isoflavones, which may contribute to heart health and hormonal balance. While minimally processed tofu is a healthy choice, flavored or fried versions may contain added fats, sodium, or preservatives. Tofu cubes can be used in stir-fries, salads, soups, or grilled dishes, absorbing flavors and complementing a variety of cuisines. Its adaptability and nutritious profile make it a favorite for health-conscious eaters looking to add more plant-based options to their diet.
