Question:

Do you think that a tofu press is an important tool in the kitchen?

— Lilly Boulianne

Answer:

Depends on what you call a tofu, press you know, I've never owned. Legit tofu, press that's great. I have friends that have them and it's a thing in their kitchen, but I have enough things in my kitchen. What I use is a bowl and then I wrap the tofu and a towel. And then I put a plate on top of that and then put a tea pitcher on top of the plate in the bowl on top of it. And that's my tofu. Press that works. Brilliantly. It works every single time. That's not fancy and I don't have to store other Gadgets in my kitchen. So it was an important. Mmm. I would say not but if you love tofu and you want to press and it's something you think you need go for it. That's great, but it's definitely not something you need in a kitchen by any means.
