Tofu and tofu dishes are becoming more common in Australia as people are choosing to eat more plant-based proteins for reasons related to health, the environment and animal rights.
Tofu comes in different textures (soft, silken, firm, very firm) and selecting which texture to choose depends on the dish you’re making, for example, you would need a firm tofu for the BBQ.
