silken tofu
Creamy soy custard
Silken tofu is a variety of tofu that isn't pressed or drained, giving it a smooth, custard-like texture.
It's softer and more delicate than regular tofu, used in soups, smoothies, desserts, and sauces where its creamy consistency can blend in: I use silken tofu to make vegan chocolate mousse.
