About Tofu, dried-frozen (koyadofu)
Koya-dofu, or dried-frozen tofu, is one of the most concentrated food products in the soy category. Traditional Japanese processing involves freezing firm tofu, then slowly drying it, which drives out nearly all the water and dramatically concentrates every nutrient. The result is very high protein, substantial fat, meaningful fiber, and moderate carbohydrates packed into a lightweight, shelf-stable block. Rehydrated in warm water or dashi, it swells back and absorbs surrounding flavors like a sponge. Nutritionally it sits closer to a nut or cheese than to fresh tofu.
