edit About Soft Tofu

Tofu, also Tōfu (the Japanese Romaji spelling), doufu (the Chinese Pinyin spelling often used in Chinese recipes) or bean curd (the literal translation), is a food of Chinese origin, made by coagulating soy milk, and then pressing the resulting curds into blocks. There are many different varieties of tofu, including fresh tofu and tofu that has been processed in some way. Tofu has very little flavor or smell on its own, so it can be used either in savory or sweet dishes, and is often seasoned or marinated to suit the dish. Soft tofu has a silky texture.

Other Names:Bean Curd, Cotton Tofu, Tofu, Doufu, Silken Tofu, 软豆腐 (Chinese), 豆腐 (Japanese), لينة التوفو (Arabic), Мягкий тофу (Russ... All Translations
