Cooking Tips
🧈 Tofu
- Press tofu for 15-30 minutes to remove excess water for better texture.
- Use extra-firm tofu for stir-fries and firm for grilling.
- Freeze and thaw tofu for a chewier, more meat-like texture.
Nutrition: Plant-based protein with calcium and iron. Half a block has about 20g protein.
Storage: Unopened tofu keeps until the expiry date. Once opened, use within 3-5 days submerged in water.
🥬 Spinach
- Spinach reduces dramatically when cooked — use 3x more than you think.
- Add spinach at the very end of cooking to preserve nutrients.
- Pair with citrus or vitamin C-rich foods to boost iron absorption.
Nutrition: Rich in iron, calcium, vitamin K, and folate. One cup raw has only 7 calories.
Storage: Refrigerate in a dry paper towel-lined container for up to 7 days.
