Tips for cooking with tofu
- Press firm tofu for 15 minutes under something heavy so it fries crisp instead of soggy.
- Toss cubes in a little cornflour before frying for a crunchier outside.
- Silken tofu is for soups, sauces and desserts; firm or extra-firm is for frying.

Questions about tofu dinners
Which tofu should I buy?
Firm or extra-firm for stir-fries and crispy tofu, silken for soups and creamy sauces. The video usually says which it uses.
Do I have to press tofu?
For frying, it helps a lot: less water means a crisper outside. For soups and scrambles, you can skip it.
Are all the tofu dinners vegan?
No. Some cook tofu with egg, meat or fish sauce. Choose "Vegan" and we only pick from videos chosen for a vegan diet whose title names no animal products.
