Organic Firm Tofu

"A household name to some, but a peculiar protein replacement to many, tofu is a traditional piece of the culinary puzzle to many East Asian and Southeast Asian dishes. Tofu production was first recorded in China over two millennia ago and while we’ve only had our doors open since 1958, we like to think the Trader Joe’s Organic Firm Tofu we produce has the quality of a tofu that’s been being perfected over the last 2,000 years. Made from allowing soy milk to curdle, tofu can be packaged in a variety of softness: silken, soft, firm, and extra firm. Firm Tofu is most similar to the texture of all the raw meat and seafood we stock on our shelves, making it a popular meat alternative. Nutritionally, it has all nine essential amino acids, adding to that high profile meat alternative status Firm Tofu holds. Entirely plant-based, gluten free, high in protein while low in fat makes for a great addition to many dishes as the main protein component. Trader Joe’s Organic Firm Tofu soaks up the flavor of any dish or sauce it gets tossed into, making for a flavorful and versatile plant-based star of many meals."
