These extra-firm, small, flat squares of processed dofu are cut into fine strips and then added to soups and stir-fries such as Pad Thai. Some are seasoned, usually with Chinese five-spice and soy. To press curd dofu, transfer the drained dofu to a plate, top with another flat item, and then weigh down with 1 to 2 lbs. (you can use anything: cans, jars, etc.). Within thirty minutes you will have expelled some water. Pressed overnight, dofu could actually reduce its weight by 20 percent.
