About Soy tofu
Soy tofu, often referred to as bean curd, is a versatile and protein-rich food made from coagulated soy milk. Originating from East Asian cuisines, tofu has been a staple ingredient for centuries, particularly in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean cooking. Its texture ranges from silken and creamy to firm, making it adaptable in soups, stir-fries, desserts, and more. Packed with plant-based protein, tofu is an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. It contains essential amino acids, iron, calcium, and other nutrients while being low in calories and free of cholesterol. Additionally, soy isoflavones in tofu are linked to potential heart health benefits. However, those with soy allergies or sensitivities should avoid it, and consuming tofu in moderation is wise due to its phytoestrogens, which can impact hormones. Overall, tofu is a nutritious and healthy addition to a balanced diet, celebrated for both its health benefits and culinary versatility.
