Tips and Tricks

  • For the best texture, press the tofu well before cooking to remove excess moisture. This helps it brown nicely and stay crispy.
  • To make it keto-friendly, skip the rice or noodles and serve it as is or over cauliflower rice.
  • Add extra veggies like snap peas, shredded carrots, or broccoli for even more crunch and color.
  • If you like heat, drizzle with sriracha or sprinkle with red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.

THE STORY OF SOY SAUCE

Even people who love soy sauce and use it all the time are often surprised to learn what it is and how it’s made. We make ours from just four simple ingredients—water, soybeans, wheat, and salt. Those ingredients are transformed through a traditional brewing process—much like making wine or beer—that has remained unchanged for centuries.
