Tofu

Tofu is a versatile soy-based ingredient common in East Asian and vegetarian cuisines, used in everything from stir-fries and soups to grilled and blended preparations. It is a concentrated plant protein, providing about 17.3g of protein per 100g, and is prized for taking on flavors and textures from other ingredients. Nutritionally, Tofu is low in saturated fat, a useful source of calcium and plant omega-3s, and is typically a minimally processed way to add complete protein to meals. Because it delivers a strong amino acid profile and modest fiber with relatively little saturated fat, it’s often recommended as a nutritious alternative to many animal proteins.
