What to expect from a silken tofu recipe
Meet the star of our healthy, versatile and even sensual snack idea – silken tofu. You’ll fall in love with its velvety texture and have a lot of fun experimenting with flavours. Our plan is to take the often-said-to-be-a-tasteless-food tofu and show you how amazing it can actually taste! You should probably expect by now that we have something to say about the wholesomeness of the chilled tofu recipe. It’s vegan, low-calorie (72 calories per serving) and moderately high protein (6g per serving)! If you add 1 cup of cooked sushi rice and divide the silken tofu recipe for 2 servings, you’ll get a 450 calorie, 12g protein and 5g fat lunch or dinner. What’s more, tofu itself is an amazing nutritious product with many health benefits. It’s a source of complete protein and one of the greatest vegetarian high protein foods for weight loss (you can find out more in this article).
