Tofu, a crucial element in Japanese cuisine, is growing in popularity beyond the borders of Asian gastronomy, particularly among vegetarians and vegans.

Made from coagulated soy milk, tofu is rich in plant-based proteins. Soft or firm, marinated, pan-cooked or fried, its diverse textures and flavors allow it to be incorporated into a variety of dishes: diced in miso soups, as a salad accompaniment, in smoothies or cakes…  Serving as a base for a multitude of culinary creations, tofu’s ability to absorb flavors enhances and elevates dishes. Available fresh, at room temperature, or even frozen, tofu is practical to use and easy to store.

The rise of veganism and flexitarianism reflects a significant shift in consumption habits towards more sustainable food choices without compromising on quality and taste pleasure. Shojin Ryori, originating in Buddhist temples, advocates for a vegetarian diet, making plant-based practices deeply rooted in Japanese cuisine for centuries. Plant-based alternatives offer a variety of textures and flavors, whether in the form of tofu-based vegetable nuggets or fish-free sashimi.
