How to use KoyaTofu: Easy, Healthy, and Perfect for Cooking
Koya tofu (also known as dried tofu or freeze-dried tofu) is a plant-based protein made from tofu and dried for long shelf life.
It’s incredibly easy to prepare — just add water!
For Salads and Stir-Fries
Soak koya tofu in water or lukewarm water for 1–2 minutes, then gently squeeze out the excess moisture.
Now it’s ready to use:
- Slice it and toss into salads
- Pan-fry with olive oil and spices
→ The texture is juicy and satisfying — a great meat alternative!
For Soups and Stews
No need to soak beforehand.
Just add koya tofu directly into your soup or stew at the end of cooking.
It will absorb the flavor of the broth and become deliciously tender.
- Try it in minestrone, vegetable stews, or ramen
- Perfect for vegan and plant-based diets
