Types of tofu and their nutritional content
Like cheeses, tofu is divided into different types, depending on its firmness. The common types of tofu are:
  • Silken: The softest type of tofu, also known as Japanese tofu, has a similar texture to mozzarella cheese and can be used in creamy sauces for ravioli.
  • Regular: This type of tofu is slightly harder and can be scrambled and eaten similar to scrambled eggs.
  • Firm: The most popular and widely available type of tofu, it has a texture like feta cheese. Firm tofu can be used in a variety of ways, from deep-frying to stir-fries, and is known for absorbing flavors from marinades and sauces.
  • Extra-firm: This tofu is also easy to cook with, but doesn't absorb flavors as well as firm tofu.
  • Super-firm: This variety of tofu has a texture similar to meat.
The type of tofu that you choose will have an impact on its nutritional value, Proctor says.
