Cooking Tips
🧈 Tofu

- Use extra-firm tofu for stir-fries and firm for grilling.
- Freeze and thaw tofu for a chewier, more meat-like texture.

Storage: Unopened tofu keeps until the expiry date. Once opened, use within 3-5 days submerged in water.
🥬 Cabbage
- Shred cabbage thinly for slaw and thicker for braising.
- Red cabbage needs acid (vinegar or lemon) to keep its color when cooking.
- Cabbage is one of the most affordable vegetables — one head feeds a family.
