Follow these 3 simple steps to start your Tofu Revolution

Step 1:
 Remove the tofu from the packaging and drain off any excess water

Step 2: Place the block into the inner tub, the green container with perforated holes

Step 3: Replace the lid, pull the elastic bands down around the hooks and push the handles down to impart a continuous pressure on the tofu.


Now leave the press in the fridge for the desired amount of time, you will not need to return to the press to increase the pressure half-way through the pressing time. The longer you leave the tofu, the better it will be pressed.

*Remember* if you only have 10 minutes pressing time that is better than no pressing time at all


Pressing Times

See the following guideline pressing times depending on what you are making:

Short press, 15-30 mins – for sauces, smoothies, chocolate mousse or cheesecakes

Medium press, 1-2 hours – for pasties, quiches and pies

Long press, 4 hours to overnight – for stir-fries, kebabs and baked tofu


And you’re done

When you’re ready to either marinate or cook your tofu straight away, simply release the bands by opening the handles, remove the tofu and pour out the water. Whether you marinate, whiz, bake, scramble or fry, just look at the difference pressing it has made..
