What is tofu?

Tofu

Tofu is also called bean curd. It is produced from soy milk in much the same way that cheese is produced from cow's milk. Tofu comes in firm, extra-firm, and soft or silken varieties. The firm and extra-firm varieties are best for emulating the texture of meat; the silken and soft recipes are best for desserts and dressings.
