Tofu

Made by adding a coagulant to soy milk and pressing the curds into varying levels of softness (or firmness), the Chinese have been making tofu for 2,000 years. The spread of tofu-making and consumption in Asia may or may not have coincided with the spread of Buddhism and the Buddhist meatless diet.

Start with a guide on how to buy, prep and cook tofu before deciding which among the recipes in this list you want to try at home.
