Book excerpt: This comprehensive cookbook presents the limitless, multi-cuisine possibilities of tofu in a wide range of delectable, plant-based recipes. Featuring a robust collection of more than 170 recipes from all over the world, Tofu makes the case for the ingredient as a culinary “blank page” much like white rice or pasta—and a boon for flavor and culinary techniques of all types.

Along with the enticing array of recipes, this collection features one hundred full-color photographs, prep and cook time tips, diet designations, and a handy reference to the different types and uses of tofu—making it a definitive volume for all skill levels.
