What is the difference between silken and regular tofu?
assistant
Silken tofu is made using a coagulant that is added to soymilk before it is cooked. This makes it creamier in texture and softer than regular tofu, which is cut into cubes and boiled in water after it is coagulated. Silken tofu tends to be silkier, smoother, and more delicate in flavor and texture than regular tofu. It can also be blended into sauces and smoothies more easily than regular tofu.
