Tofu is made from soy milk, boiled and curdled with a coagulant such as seawater or a seawater extract, and pressed into blocks, or sold unpressed for silken (soft) tofu.
I think it's soy beans.
Tofu is made by soaking, crushing, and cooking soybeans in soy milk. Then a coagulant, usually calcium sulfate or calcium chloride and glucono delta-lactone (called nigari in Japanese) is added. The soy milk then coagulates into a large block--It is called curd and is processed/used like cheese. It is popular as a meat substitute.
1. Heat soy milk.
2. Add a coagulant.
3. Wait for soy milk to curdle.
4. Transfer curdles into a mold.
5. Apply weight to the mold for a while.
6. Take tofu out of the mold.
