It’s no secret that I’m obsessed, well beyond obsessed, with pressing tofu. The differences in pressed tofu are a vegetarian game changer, which is why I was obsessed prior to owning any gadget as you can see here.
The frequency in which I pressed tofu grew exponentially after this handy dandy tool made its way into my kitchen. No more paper towels, no more ruined cookbooks, just self contained pressing goodness.
Pressing tofu is like squeezing a sponge, you take as much moisture out of it as you can so that it will soak up as much marinade as possible. Coincidentally, plain tofu has about as much flavor as a sponge, so you can see how important this whole pressing thing can be.
Pressing tofu also changes its texture, giving it a less spongy, more meaty feel. In fact, if I would have chopped these tofu squares into smaller pieces, I’m not sure I would have been able to tell the difference between this salad and chicken salad.
Here’s how you win one!
