Tofu is made from soybeans that have been made into milk, into which a coagulant (nigari or lemon juice) is added, and the curds are collected and pressed to make tofu. This processing of the soybean makes it easier to digest and creates a vegetable protein source that is high in B-vitamins, calcium, phosphorous, iron, sodium, and potassium. Tofu has a cooling property, and will relieve inflammation of the stomach. You can start the day off with a smoothie made from it being an energy tonic. It detoxifies the body and neutralizes toxins, making is useful in cases of alcoholism. Tofu comes in Extra Firm, Firm, Soft, and Silken. Use extra firm and firm for stir fries, baked tofu, fried tofu. The soft and silken forms of tofu are great in desserts and smoothies.

(9 reviews) Posted by ~Rita~

I fooled a lot of people; they still think the pie couldn't have tofu in it! I make it with a lot of spices. Be flexible; use more or less as need be. I also skip the crust and put it into a Pam-sprayed dish. MORE»
