Frequently Asked Questions

We answer everything you want to know about Fermented Tofu.

What is fermented tofu?

Fermented tofu, also known as furu or fermented bean curd, is a traditional Chinese condiment made by fermenting tofu cubes with salt, rice wine, and spices. It has a creamy, cheese-like texture and a deep, savory umami flavor.

How do you eat fermented tofu?

It is a versatile condiment often eaten with rice porridge (congee), steamed buns, or used to enhance the flavor of stir-fries, hot pot dipping sauces, and braised meat dishes.

Is fermented tofu safe to eat?

Yes, commercially produced fermented tofu is safe to eat. The fermentation process uses specific, food-safe molds that are traditional in Asian cuisine to develop its unique flavor and texture.

What is the difference between red and white fermented tofu?

White fermented tofu is typically brined with salt and rice wine, offering a clean, savory taste. Red fermented tofu is fermented with red yeast rice, which gives it a distinct reddish color, a slightly sweeter profile, and a richer depth of flavor.

How should I store fermented tofu?

Once opened, store your fermented tofu in the refrigerator to maintain its quality. Always use a clean, dry spoon to scoop out the tofu to prevent contamination and ensure it stays fresh for months.
