Tofu – a plant-based alternative to meat and cheese that has high protein content and can be used in both hot and cold kitchen 

Tofu is a plant-based alternative to cheese or meat that boasts high protein content. It therefore contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and healthy bones. This makes it a popular choice among athletes and fans of a healthy lifestyle. Tofu is made from rinsed soybeans that are left to soak. They are then blended into a smooth paste. This paste is then cooked, strained, and further processed until the final product is obtained. Tofu can have a neutral taste, or it can be flavoured, such as with spices, as seen in the case of smoked or marinated tofu versions.  

  

Tofu doesn't require heat treatment, so you can create delicious plant-based spreads, salads, or use it as a replacement for cheese and ham on sandwiches. However, you can also bake, fry, grill, or sauté tofu and serve it with any side dish. But that's not all, skilled chefs can transform it into vegan burgers, various sauces and vegetable mixes that will be rich in protein.  

  

And let's not forget about those who are looking for something sweet. If you choose the unflavoured version, you can blend tofu with frozen fruit to create some delicious vegan ice cream. It can also be grated and added to dough to increase its protein content. The sky is the limit, and you'll surely discover many other ways to incorporate this plant-based delight into your meals.  

  

However, tofu isn't exclusively just for vegetarians and vegans. People who consume animal products also incorporate tofu into their recipes. Plant-based alternatives can be a great addition to anyone's diet, bringing variety to every menu.
