My wife ate too much risotto yesterday, and some for breakfast, so its a quick stir fry just for me tonight.

    The freezing seems to open up pores in the block of tofu so the water presses out easily and then there is a bit of texture created also.

    Agave syrup eh, I have some in the fridge I will try that, thanks for the tip!

      Yea, I seem to remember hearing something like that too. I’ve also heard that instead of squeezing the tofu you can also get out the excess water by putting it in salted boiled water? It worked to varying degrees but usually just pressing it wrapped in toilet paper worked fine enough, depending on the brand of tofu I get.

      You’re welcome! It’s the easiest and most hassle-free way for us to prepare tofu for all kinds of dishes. Beats coming up with diffretn ways of preparing it. :D
