Mori-Nu Silken Tofu Extra Firm | Smooth and Creamy | Low Fat, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegan, Made with Non-GMO soybeans, KSA Kosher Parve | Shelf-Stable | 10.9 oz x 12 Packs

I just made an interesting choice with this tofu - I made macaroni cheese using the tofu as the base with Nut. Yeast added for the 'cheese' - it was wonderful - I was not sure how the tofu would behave - added just a little water & whipped it to a smooth cream with the Nut Yeast & it was delicious & a beautiful texture ! Did not grill the dish this time, but I will try that next time to see if it browns nicely too. I'm so happy. I'm not very fond of tofu chunks - somehow the soft middle doesn't work for me - I browse recipes all the time & have not found a tofu chunk recipe I like yet ! I will try mixing other things in with it to get a firm texture - really firm & chewy like a burger is what I want - Youtube is my friend tho !

The main thing to know is... While is it is "extra firm", it is still SILKEN, which means no matter what it is not going to hold in little squares or strips (unless you put in a lot of effort). For that you want non-silken regular. This SILKEN tofu is good for "egg" scrambles, "egg" salad, for baking, for smoothies, for other creamy applications (sauces, "gravies", puddings, desserts). Directly out from box it is a firm block, but if you take off a chunk and it eat plain, ot very much has same texture as a hard boiled egg white. Shelf stable makes for great Emergency option. Pantry option. I have always been one to keep a well packed pantry (not live close to stores, dont like to shop, dont want to have to buy something every time I want to make something), and especially in the past couple of years due to pandemic and current world affairs (supply chain issues, transportation issues, price inflation, availability, worldwar3?, etc)...I just want more on hand. Or have extra on hand in case someone close needs it. I can do up some care packages. During early days of pandemic, I was able to stay out of public and was able to help elderly folks by supplying them some stuff so they didnt have to put themselves at further risk. And so now, I am just shoring up and adding more variety. Buying a little of something here and there (not all at once!) helps build a nice supply. I dont often use tofu, but it comes into play for some recipes and cooking/baking curiosities. I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but I love all sorts of food. I figured I would add this into my mix. Decent source of protein (7 grams per serving, there are 4 servings per box, so 28 grams if you ate the whole thing), shelf stable, and adds a creamy kick to sauces and smoothies.

Update: It’s a great deal at $20 a case. But recently it’s gone up to $40 a case which is completely insane. At that price it’s cheaper to make your own tofu from scratch (easy to do too!) Original review: I truly love this brand and style of packaging. They have various "flavors" available; yuzu (my fav served with blackberry preserves), edamame (good with braggs aminos) and the normal plain type (served with a tablespoon of tamari/shoyu and a splash of toasted sesame oil or chili oil). I keep these on hand for protein snacks when I'm too busy to cook. It's a nice consistency too. For cooking I usually choose nasoya extra-firm for air frying or stir fries. This mori-nu is best for vegan scrambled eggs, smoothies etc. Cheaper than making my own tofu given the time saved and the convenience of storing it at room temperature. A really great food for prepping, convenience and snacks. Nom, nom, nom!

My wife and I have been making the necessary changes to lose weight and become healthier and fit (excercise, dieting, etc.) We've decided to make more changes by substituting meats. After looking at all the easy recipes only for Tofu we decided to give it a try! We'll I saw that Silken "Extra Firm" is a best seller on Amazon and didn't want to waste anytime.l so I ordered and it arrived within the time frame promised. The packaging is as shown in the pictures. We'll the same day it came I decided to try a recipe I found on Google for "Baked Tofu Bites" that's where the problem came in, this tofu is just too soft! Doesn't look at all like the Tofu I've seen in pictures or on cooking videos on YouTube. I'm in no way blaming the company as I've noticed they put, "Silken Style" on the package. I'm thinking "silken tofu" is different from "regular tofu"? The "Baked Tofu Bites" were a little too soft and didn't come out as described. I fear the same problem will happen with other recipes such as "Tofu Parmigiana" and "Tofu Lasanga". However, I would recommend this Tofu for soups and stews, etc. The flavor of the Tofu itself is pleasant just too soft for my liking some broke apart after just opening the package!

Great pantry staple for plant-based meals I’ve been using this Mori-Nu silken tofu for years, and it remains one of my favorite staples to keep in the pantry. The shelf-stable packaging is a huge plus—it doesn’t need refrigeration until opened, so I can always have a box or two handy without worrying about spoilage. Once opened, it has that smooth, velvety texture you expect from silken tofu, but the “extra firm” version holds its shape better than the softer varieties. I’ve used it in miso soup, smoothies, stir-fries, and even desserts like chocolate mousse. It blends beautifully into sauces and dressings while also working as a protein-rich replacement for eggs in some recipes. The fact that it’s non-GMO, vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free makes it easy to serve to guests with dietary restrictions. A couple of things to keep in mind: this is not the same as refrigerated block tofu. It won’t grill or pan-fry with a crisp edge the way firm water-packed tofu does, so it’s better for soups, stews, dressings, and creamy applications. Also, since it’s so delicate, handle gently when slicing or cubing. Bottom line: A versatile, shelf-stable tofu with a creamy yet firmer texture that makes it incredibly useful in both savory and sweet dishes. A must-have for anyone who enjoys plant-based cooking.

This soft tofu works great for the puddings that I make using frozen fruit.

Im a newbie to tofu, ive only had it in miso soup. Bought this tofu block to make tofu katsu curry for the 1st time. I honestly couldnt wait until i had all the katsu curry ingredients to try out this tofu. I immediatly found myself substituting ground beef and Salmon with tofu ( im not vegan, i was just really curious to use tofu in recipes i would normaly use fish or beef in). Simply amazing, eating this tofu was like starting a whole new chapter in my life. My body and health feel so good aftear eating. I ate this tofu for the 1st time in the evening for dinner and afterwards as i lay in bed, the only thing in my mind was the tofu and all things i was going to be able to do with it. The texture and the taste are out of this world good. Honestly the feeling was similar to falling in love. I then tried a top of the line Extra firm non silken organic tofu from brand Nasoya to compare, Americas #1 seller according to Nasoya. I made tofu katsu curry with both and the clear winner was obvious. The non silken tofu was much more firm than the silken, which i initially thought that it would be a good thing in terms of handling when cooking. The biggest difference between the two i beleive is that silken tofu is made with soy milk and non silken does not use soy milk. Nasoya brand extra firm tofu has a "sponge" like texture and quite honestly at some times i wished i really was eating a sponge, because i found the texture and the taste of this tofu just awful when consuming. Silken tofu is a whole different story, silken extra firm tofu is a bit more difficult to handle because it tends to fall apart. You dont have to store Silken extra firm unopened tofu in the fridge, but i found out that if you do store in the fridge, handling becomes a little bit easier, doesnt break apart as easy ( after watching a few videos i wouldnt recomend freezing silken tofu). The texture of Silken extra firm tofu is similar to spanish flan, and OH MY is it delicious, you can really taste the soymilk. I hear alot of people including vegans say that tofu has no taste, i then ask if they buy Silken or non Silken, the answer is always the same, " whats silken ? ". Silken extra firm tofu is incredibly delicious and it was the clear winner compared to other tofu.

This gets smaller and more expensive which each order. Lately a weird problem keeps occurring where the order will not ship and the "expected by" changes each day, but I can't ever cancel the order. I like having shelf-stable tofu, but this product has become too expensive and too inconvenient to be a viable option.

Excellent firm silken tofu, and still in the 300g packs where many others are cutting the pack size down ( making for a frugal breakfast!) I mostly use for breakfast scramble but thus wiukd be very good in raven too.

Este producto debería estar prácticamente demandado en grandes cantidades por todos los habitantes de occidente el día de hoy. Es una lástima que no se esté aprovechando este producto más debido a prejuicios falsos que han considerado los productos que contienen soya como algo que no es tan bueno para el ser humano cuando la realidad es completamente diferente. Si la fuente de proteína que tuviésemos se originara en plantas como el tofu las cosas relativas a nuestra salud serían mucho mejores de lo que son hoy. No se ha querido entender que por deliciosa o por costumbre que sea el usar proteína animal Esto no es lo que mejor convierte a nuestros cuerpos.

This is the first time I had ordered tofu online and the experience was good...i was a bit confused about the brand but after going through the reviews i ordered from this brand.The quality was perfect though it doesn't taste as good as Paneer🤤 as it is not made from milk but it can be an alternative to paneer for sure.

Llegó rápido, bien empaquetado, 👍 lo volveré a comprar cuando se me termine

Good quality tofu, highly recommend
