About Tofu, fried, prepared with calcium sulfate
Fried tofu prepared with calcium sulfate has a golden, slightly crispy exterior and a yielding interior. The frying process drives up the fat considerably compared to fresh tofu, making this a moderate-fat food rather than the lean option fresh tofu represents. Protein remains respectable, and there is a modest amount of fiber. It holds its shape well under heat, which makes it good for stir-fries, soups, and braised preparations where softer tofu would fall apart. In Southeast Asian and East Asian cooking it appears in laksa, curries, and noodle dishes.
