Tofu can be kept in the refrigerator
for at least a week. Place it in a
container, cover it with water.
Change the water every other day .
This will make the tofu firmer and
won't change it flavor for a longer
time.
Tofu can be freezed in a sealed zip
lock bag.
Consistency, weight
depend on the coagulant used.
Pick the one you prefer.
Remember Tofu has a very neutral
flavor. Condiment as you desire.
