TOFU & OTHER TOFU PRODUCTS

TOFU
Tofu is available in two different styles: a firm, rough type and a soft, silky type. Different production processes create these differences in texture as well as variations in flavor and nutrients. Both types are perfect to eat cold with condiments. Use firm tofu in simmered, stir-fried and deep-fried Dishes. Use the soft variety in soups and steamed dishes.

ATSU-AGE (fried thick tofu)
Atsu-age is deep-fried tofu. It is as thick as regular firm tofu. Atsu-age is used in simmered preparations.

ABURA-AGE (fried thin tofu)
Abura-age is thin fried tofu. It is used in miso soup, in stir-fried and simmered preparations. Abura-age is also cooked with sugar and/or mirin and shoyu for inari-zushi (sushi rice stuffed into bags made form sweet-simmered abura-age).

INARI-AGE (seasoned fried thin tofu)
This product is already prepared and seasoned abura-age. It is ready-to-use for making inari-zushi.

YUBA (soymilk film)
Yuba is the thin film which covers the surface of heated soymilk. It is a by product of making tofu. Yuba is supplied in fresh or dried varieties. Fresh yuba, which is tender, sweet and aromatic, is often eaten as-is with wasabi and shoyu. Dried yuba, after reconstituting, is used as a wrapper and then may be simmered or deep-fried.

NIGARI (coagulant for tofu)
Nigari is a natural mineral coagulant that is extracted from sea water. It is used to set soymilk to make tofu. Nigari contains chemicals such as magnesium chloride and calcium sulfate.

EDAMAME (fresh green soybean)
Edamame are fresh green soybeans. The beans have a sweet and nutty flavor. Cooked edamame are a popular accompaniment to beer and other beverages. They are avaiable frozen already shelled or in the shell.

DADACHAMAME (#71249)
Dadachamame are similar to edamame beans, but have stronger flavor and more noticeable sweetness than edamame.

NATTO (fermented soybeans)
Natto is a fermented product. It has a sticky texture and a slight ammonia-like smell. Its production employs only two materials - soybeans and the bacterial fermentation starter natto kin. Natto is often served with hot table rice. It is also deep-fried, used in miso soup and as an ingredient in sushi rolls.

KONNYAKU (taro gelatin)
Konnyaku is made from taro root, called konnyaku imo. It has resilient texture and no distinctive flavor. Konnyaku is used in stir-fried dishes, soup and simmered preparations largely for its texture.

SHIRATAKI (konnyaku in noodle form)
Shirataki is an indispensable ingredient in hot-pot dishes such as sukiyaki (sautéed meat and vegetables).
