@fitgreenmind: (Werbung) Is freezing tofu worth it? 👀 YES! And this is not only my personal opinion, researchers at ETH Zurich have  recently published a paper in which they looked at the “freezing structure”  effect and found out that it can also be applied to whole legumes to change  their texture… you can find the article here: https://ethz.ch/en/news-and-events/eth-news/news/2026/09/food-innovation-in-your-kitchen-giving-peas-beans-and-lentils-a-new-bite.html  🤓 Here’s how you can apply this science to your everyday cooking… 😉👇 1. Freeze medium firm tofu (mine was from an Asian store) 2. Let it defrost overnight in the fridge or on the kitchen counter. Press for 1h using heavy books. Alternatively you can use the microwave which is quicker. 3. Marinade in a simple soy sauce-marinade for 30min. (I used 60ml soy  sauce, 2 Tsp vinegar and 2 Tbsp agave syrup)  4. Fry or bake and enjoy.   -  (Werbung) Lohnt es sich, Tofu einzufrieren? 👀 JA! Und das ist nicht nur meine persönliche Meinung, Forschende der ETH  Zürich haben vor Kurzem eine Studie veröffentlicht, in der sie den Effekt der  sogenannten “Gefrierstrukturierung“ untersucht und herausgefunden haben, dass  sich dieser auch auf ganze Hülsenfrüchte anwenden lässt, um ihre Textur zu  verändern… die Studie findet ihr hier: https://ethz.ch/de/news-und-veranstaltungen/eth-news/news/2026/09/so-bekommen-ganze-huelsenfruechte-struktur-und-biss.html. 🤓 Und so könnt ihr die Wissenschaft ganz einfach in eurer Küche nutzen… 😉👇 1. Mittelfesten Tofu einfrieren (meiner war aus dem Asialaden)  2. Über Nacht im Kühlschrank oder bei Zimmertemperatur auftauen  lassen. Alternativ geht das auch in der Mikrowelle, wenn es schnell gehen muss. 3. Für 1h mit schweren Büchern auspressen.  4. Für 30min in einer einfachen Sojasaucen-Marinade marinieren. (Ich  habe 60ml Sojasauce, 2 TL Essig und 2 EL Agavendicksaft verwendet) 5. Anbraten oder backen und genießen. 😋

Fun fact, tofu is one of not many products that you can freeze twice. Obviously each time squeeze the liquid out ☺️will absorb even more marinade

you can also just boil it in a seasoned broth. has the same effect and adds more flavor even before marinating it

I’m too impatient to wait. Have you tried boiled in salted water for 4 mins I think. I’m still to impatient for that too but would love your opinion.

Do you know frozen and dried tofu? It's called Koyadofu. I'm not sure if it's available in your country but try if you find one✨

I almost always freeze it and really love it that way :) Also, it keeps for longer so I can space out the tofu and whip it out to make a quick something (I usually thaw it in the microwave) when I don't wanna cook
