We`re celebrating tofu for Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month!
Tofu first originated in China over 2,000 years ago during the Western Han Dynasty. Although debated, some say that a Chinese royal named Liu An first created tofu while he was experimenting with soy milk and accidentally caused the mixture to curdle.
Tofu has also long been established as a traditional food throughout a range of Asian cuisines, including those in Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and Indonesia. It also comes in many forms, from pudding and puffs to noodles or smoked varieties.
Today, tofu making has developed from its initial discovery:
1️⃣ Dried whole soybeans are soaked, ground up, and cooked.
2️⃣ The solid pulp (okara) is separated from the milk.
3️⃣ A coagulant is added to form bean curds.
4️⃣ The curds are pressed into blocks.
Stay tuned throughout AAPI Heritage Month as we uplift our partners and team members who identify as members of the AAPI community while centering our celebration on the breadth of tofu as a dynamic, plant protein-packed ingredient. #TofuHistory #AAPIHeritageMonth #AAPIHeritageMonth2024 #AsianCuisine #TofuRecipes #TofuTradition
