Percentages of total energy (calories)
Smoked firm tofu is an excellent option if you want to vary your protein sources or eat less red meat without giving up deep flavour and a firm bite. It is made by pressing soy curd tightly to remove as much liquid as possible, then smoking it over hardwood such as beech. The result is a dense food with 15.5g of protein per 100g and moderate calories (135 kcal). It also provides calcium and plant iron; the calcium content depends on the coagulant used (calcium sulphate raises it).
💡 Smart Nutritional Guidance
Consumption advice
A 100 to 150g portion makes a filling main course and suits low-carb and keto diets because it is low in carbohydrate and usually has no added sugar.
Best preparation methods
Because it is already smoked, it needs no long marinating: cut it into small cubes and stir-fry with a spoonful of olive oil in a hot pan until the edges are golden and crisp.
Important Nutritional Note
Tofu is made from soy, one of the major food allergens, so avoid it if you have a soy allergy. It is lactose-free and suitable for people with a cow’s milk allergy. Smoked tofu is saltier than plain tofu, so check the label if you limit sodium.
