There are many types of tofu, but to make preserved egg tofu , you must use lactone tofu . Lactone tofu is different from brine old tofu. The main reason is that it uses gluconolactone as the coagulant . It can reduce the loss of protein, and lactone tofu has high water content, more delicate texture, fresh taste and easy digestion.
No matter what kind of tofu, it contains a lot of high-quality plant protein. In the hot summer, you eat less fish and other meat dishes, so it is a good choice to eat more soy products to supplement protein. In addition, tofu is rich in trace elements, especially The calcium content is relatively high, making it a good calcium supplement for children and the elderly.
