About Tofu, salted and fermented (fuyu), prepared with calcium sulfate
This product is a type of fermented tofu, also known as fuyu, made using calcium sulfate as a coagulant. Fuyu is a traditional Chinese condiment and ingredient, known for its pungent, cheesy flavor and creamy texture. It is achieved through a fermentation process that breaks down the tofu, enhancing its taste and digestibility. Commonly used as a flavor enhancer, it can be added to congee, stir-fries, or used as a dipping sauce.
With 116 calories per 100g, this fuyu provides a moderate source of protein (8.15g) and fat (8.00g), alongside 5.15g of carbohydrates. The fermentation process may enhance the bioavailability of certain nutrients. While it contains no fiber, it can contribute to protein intake, which is beneficial for muscle building and satiety. Due to its strong flavor profile, it is typically consumed in small quantities. For those watching their sodium intake, it's important to note that fermented foods can be high in sodium. This ingredient can be incorporated into various diets, but portion control is key due to its flavor intensity and fat content.
