In Japan, tofu products are well eaten as well as tofu; for example, abra-age, atsu-age, ganmodoki, koya-dofu and okara.

Abura-age is thin sliced fried tofu, put in miso soup or stir fry. It’s also used for sushi called “Inari-zushi” (rice stuffed in it).

Ganmodoki is made from tofu and vegetables puree such as Japanese yam, burdock, carrots. Often used in oden and nimono (boiled with seasoning).
