Water it and watch it grow? Sorry , I never did anything with tofu.

I marinade mine in lite soy sprayed pan saute and appreciated the high protein content and nothing else LOL

You can cube it and add it to Soup. My SIL uses it with veggies to make a meatless stir-fry. I'm sure you can look up recipes online and there will be suddenly lots of ideas for you.

Is it silken or firm? I use firm in my cooking I dry fry it.. And then put it with sauces or eat it plain for a snack. I have a recipe to dry fry around here so where let me find it and paste because I'm too lazy to type it all out again :P

To dry fry,

I cut up my tofu and SLOW fry it with no oil or butter you can use "pam" non stick spray.. on a non stick griddle or you can use a cast Iron pan.

I fry it on a lower heat to get the moisture out and crisp it up. I buy mine at trader joes (extra firm) Also after you dry fry it you can do different things with it...like marinade in anything (it is tasteless so will soak up any flavor) and stir fry with veggies I like it marinaded sometimes but I will also eat it just straight from the fridge cold after dry frying it. I will grab a piece and dip it into hummus too.

So many recipes online, what do you feel like eating? What Flavor profile? just type in "tofu recipe" and "Thai, or Itallian, or Indian or whatever" you can ask for low carb, or no sugar, or low fat", whatever you want to have. Lots will come up.

google sample for "tofu recipe low carb Italian"
