TOFUH YOU


Tofu, or bean curd, is a food of Chinese origin made by coagulating soy milk, and then pressing the resulting curds into blocks. The production of tofu from soy milk is similar to the production of cheese from milk.

Tofu originated in ancient China but little else is known about the origins of tofu and its method of production. Tofu and its production technique were subsequently introduced into Korea, then Japan during the Nara period. This spread likely coincided with the spread of Buddhism as it is an important source of proteins in the religion's vegetarian diet.

There are many different varieties of tofu, including fresh tofu and tofu that has been processed in some way. It has very little flavor or smell on its own. Tofu is low in calories, contains beneficial amounts of iron and has no saturated fat or cholesterol. Depending on the coagulant used in manufacturing, the tofu may also be high in calcium and magnesium.

As part of our culture for well being I felt tofu should be part of the ingredients we are serving at the restaurant, as raw fish and shellfish. Last week, I bought soy milk from Kyoto. It was mixed with Nigari (Magnesium chloride) and then the coagulation is made by steaming the tofu in a serving cup. It can be eaten warm or cold as here in the picture.

NUTS HISTERIA

Are Nut Bans Promoting Hysteria? Worries about nut allergies are intense in some circles. (Lars Klove for The New York Times) Every parent of a school-age child has heard the warnings about nut allergies. Some schools ban nuts entirely, while others set aside special nut-free tables. Parents are often quizzed about the ingredients and preparation methods for birthday treats they send to school. One parent told me she was asked whether a clean knife used to cut brownies had ever been used to spread peanut butter. While nut allergies are clearly a risk to some children, often the response to this health concern represents “a gross overreaction to the magnitude of the threat,” argues Dr. Nicholas A. Christakis, an internal medicine doctor and professor at Harvard Medical School, in a recent column in the British medical journal BMJ. In the column, Dr. Christakis points out that about 3.3 million Americans are allergic to nuts, and even more — 6.9 million — are allergic to seafood. But of ...
