Silken Tofu

Silken Tofu

Everyday

Silken tofu is a minimally processed, custard-like soybean product distinguished by its ultra-smooth texture and ability to blend seamlessly into both sweet and savory dishes. Unlike firmer tofu varieties, it’s coagulated without curdling the soy milk, retaining higher moisture content that makes it ideal for dressings, desserts, and dairy-free substitutions. With a protein content slightly lower than dense tofu types but still rich in iron and calcium, it serves as a versatile base for nutrient-dense vegan recipes.
