Firm tofu is dense and solid and holds up very well in stir-fry dishes, soups, or on the grill--anywhere that you want the tofu to maintain its shape. Firm tofu is also higher in protein, fat, and calcium than other forms of tofu.
     Soft tofu is a good choice for recipes that call for blended tofu or in Oriental soups.
     Silken tofu is a creamy, custard-like product which works well in pureed or blended dishes.
