Man I wanted so much to love tofu but it seems that it isn't it for me. They say that tofu is like a blank form that soaks up the flavor of whatever you through at it but for me every time I tried it seems that the flavors is not deep enough or it gets too salty and in any case it kind tastes like plain flour with salt and seasoning. Granted, I am not really good at cooking but solving cooking with throwing seasoning at it is right up my alley. In any case I always try tofu when I see it "in the wild" and always got the same experience. Granted again, never went to a place that is focused on tofu, but had tofu with miso soup for example and stuff like that.
I know it is a me thing, but the way I see online how awesome tofu is described I thought that I would just fucking love it. I still eat it though, but more like to bulk up something else and add a little nutritional variety, but I hoped it could be it's own thing for me.
On a Side not, the silken variety really impressed me, feels like good substitute for cream, mayo or cream cheese to mix with stuff like ground beef and have it less dry almost with a thick sauce.
Firm tofu does a better job of absorbing flavours than the soft kind. The easiest thing you can do is to drop it into a soup with nicely flavoured broth.
When you have something like miso soup where they use soft tofu, they usually cut it very small so the flavour doesn't need to penetrate.
