How do you know when tofu is cooked all the way?

I recently went vegetarian and have been experimenting with tofu. When you are baking the stuff how do you know when it is fully cooked? Is the consistency supposed to change? Is it supposed to change color at all?How do you know when tofu is cooked all the way?
It depens, did you like your meat: rare - medium - well done? Tofu is a precooked product so you don't have to worry about bacteria like when cooking meat. The longer you cook it the chewer it wil get, the color doesn't change much unless your frying or flame cooking it.How do you know when tofu is cooked all the way?
you don't
Tofu is cooked. It just needs to be heated and that happens when you boil it or in your case bake it. It shouldn't change color. The consistency is also delicate sometimes so it will blend in.





If you like tofo go to an Asian market and buy Dofu...that's the dessert version of tofu and it's really good. Sometimes it's called pudding but they make a mango one that you make just like jello and you eat it with just a little evaporated milk for creamy flavor. I know it sounds weird but it's sooooo good. You'll find it with the make your own tofu mixes.
Exactly. Tofu is doesn't even need to be cooked. Tofu comes from soy milk which is turned to tofu. So tofu is cooked for flavor only(get the point?).
There is only one way,

taste it!



Enjoy :)
