If You Have 5 Minutes, Make This By @wendythefoodscientist Five minutes. One pan. The easiest flavorful tofu you'll ever make. Boiling tofu in salted water for just 5 minutes changes everything. It seasons from the inside out and opens up the protein structure so it absorbs any sauce instantly. No marinating, no pressing, no waiting. Works with firm or silken tofu. Your call. 5-Minute Soy Chili Tofu — 2 servings — 400g / 14 oz medium-firm to extra-firm tofu — 2L / 8 cups water 15g / 1 tbsp salt

Your tofu keeps breaking apart in the wok? 😩 The problem is often too much moisture. Try this simple trick: 🥣 Soak tofu in warm salt water for 10–15 minutes. 🧻 Pat it completely dry. 🍳 Fry only after the oil is hot, and don’t flip too early. You’ll get tofu that’s firmer, easier to flip, and beautifully golden. 💬 Have you tried this before? Let me know in the comments! ❤️ Follow Melissa for more practical kitchen tips that actually work. #homecooking #easyrecipe #homehacks #kitchenhacks #to
