Questions about Organic extra firm tofu
Do you need to press organic extra firm tofu before cooking it?
It is already fairly firm, so pressing is optional. For a drier, chewier result, wrap it in a clean tea towel and weigh it down for 15–30 minutes, then cut it into pieces.
How do you make organic extra firm tofu crisp in a pan?
Pat it dry, cut it into cubes and toss with a little cornflour. Fry in a thin layer of hot oil over medium-high heat for about 8–10 minutes, turning the cubes until browned on several sides; add sauce near the end so they stay crisp.
How do you bake organic extra firm tofu?
Cut it into cubes or slabs, pat dry and coat lightly with oil and seasoning. Bake at 200 °C for 25–30 minutes, turning once, until the edges are browned.
How should you store organic extra firm tofu after opening?
Keep it covered in fresh water in a sealed container in the fridge and change the water daily. Use it within a few days, or follow the storage instructions on its packaging if they give a shorter time.
Can you freeze organic extra firm tofu?
Yes. Drain it, freeze it in a sealed container, then thaw it in the fridge and press out excess water. Freezing makes the texture more porous and chewy, which is useful for soaking up marinades.
What can you cook with organic extra firm tofu?
Its shape holds up well in stir-fries, kebabs and curries. Marinate cubes or slabs first, or crumble it into a pan with spices for a filling that works in tacos and wraps.
Can you use organic extra firm tofu instead of chicken in a recipe?
Use cubes or slabs in place of boneless chicken in stir-fries, curries and tray bakes, but cook them until browned rather than expecting them to cook like raw meat. Tofu takes on marinades well, so season it before cooking.
