Tofu has long been a source of protein in the Orient. It has much the same importance to the people of the Orient that meats, eggs and cheese have for the people in Western Countries. Tofu is usually sold in the form of a wet cake with a creamy-white color, smooth custard-like texture and a bland taste. It is highly hydrated and, depending on the water content, tofu products with different characteristics can be produced. The typical oriental type of tofu has a water content about 85%. Japanese prefer tofu having a smooth, fragile texture that contains about 88% water. The Chinese, on the other hand, produce many types of firm products with a chewy meatlike texture and a water content as low as 50-60%. Western consumers like tofu with a firm texture therefore, tofu found in the U.S. supermarkets contains 75-80% water.
