Tofu

Condensed soy milk is used to make tofu, which has Chinese origins. It is then pressed into firm white blocks, much like cheese. 


Condensed soy milk is used to make tofu in a method analogous to creating cheese. 

If you're concerned about GMOs, organic tofu is your best choice because it frequently prepared from GMO soybeans.




Tofu has a high protein and fat content but few calories. It also includes calcium and manganese, among other significant vitamins and minerals. Isoflavones, which are thought to be the primary reason for tofu's health advantages, may be found in all soy products, including tofu.
