Why We Love Vegan Koya Tofu (Freeze-Dried Bean Curd) – The Ultimate Protein-Packed Convenience Food

In a world where fast food often means processed junk, Vegan Koya Tofu is a game-changer—a traditional Japanese ingredient that delivers high protein, rich nutrients, and instant meal solutions without compromise.

Made from 100% soybeans, this freeze-dried tofu is 50% protein, low in carbs, and packed with iron, calcium, and phytoestrogens (great for women’s health!). It’s shelf-stable, lightweight, and absorbs flavors beautifully, making it the perfect addition to soups, stews, and broths.

But the best part? It’s instant. No cooking required—just add hot water, and you’ve got a nutrient-dense, real-food meal in seconds.

2 Easy Ways to Use Vegan Koya Tofu

1. Japanese-Style Instant Miso Soup (Gomamiso Blend)

What you’ll need:

• 1 tbsp Tanihi & Chickpea Gomamiso Paste

• 2 tbsp Koya Tofu (finely cut)

• Chopped shiso leaves, scallions, or wakame (optional)

• 450ml hot water

How to make it:

1. In a Mason jar (reuse one of our sauerkraut or nut butter jars!), add the miso paste and koya tofu.

2. Toss in fresh herbs (shiso, scallions, or dried wakame for extra minerals).

3. When ready to eat, pour in hot water, stir, and enjoy!

💡 Why we love it: The gomamiso (sesame-chickpea miso) adds depth and umami, while the koya tofu soaks up the flavors and delivers a protein boost.

2. Western-Style Lemon & Herb Bone Broth Soup

What you’ll need:

• 1 tbsp Gevity Lemon & Herb Bone Broth Paste

2. At mealtime, add hot water, stir, and sip!

💡 Why we love it: The collagen-rich bone broth pairs perfectly with the tofu’s protein, while the lemon and herbs add a bright, refreshing kick. Great for gut health, immunity, and recovery.
