My Guide to Cooking Amazing Tofu
As a single ingredient, tofu has a lot to offer and it’s worth learning how to cook it well. I’ve gathered together all of my tofu recipes, tutorials, tips, and tricks together into this all-inclusive tofu resource. You’ll be enjoying amazing tofu dishes in no time!
Why do you need to learn how to cook tofu?
- It’s high in protein (13g/serving)
- A source of calcium and iron
- Mild in flavour making it ideal for marinades
- Versatile – it can be baked, sautéed, fried, grilled, you name it!
- Quick and easy to prepare – it can be flavoured and prepared in as little as 10 minutes
- Very cost effective, 1 block ($2.27) = 4 servings ($0.57/serving)
Tofu has some awesome health benefits too! Studies have shown that eating tofu can help to lower bad cholesterol, and 25g of soy protein per day may reduce the risk of heart disease (in combination with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol.) Check the label and look for non-GMO tofu.

Please remember that being vegan is a privilege, and that judging anyone for not adopting such a lifestyle makes you a gaping asshole.

See THIS is how you can be a vegan without being a pretentious asshole about it.
so i hadn’t heard about this and i looked it up.
peta is offering to pay the overdue water bills of up to ten detroit households if those households go vegan for thirty days. detroit, one of the poorest cities in the country. they are extorting people into veganism. people who cannot afford to eat vegan all the time.
