1. Add some meat, protein is better absorbed. Soybeans are known as "plant meat", and they are the most excellent protein food in plant-based foods. Tofu made from soybeans also has a good protein content. However, the amino acid content and ratio of protein in tofu is not very reasonable, nor is it particularly suitable for human digestion and absorption. If you add some high-quality protein foods while eating tofu, it can complement the tofu and make its protein better digested, absorbed, and utilized by the human body. These high-quality protein foods are none other than meat and eggs. Therefore, dishes like minced meat braised tofu and preserved egg mixed tofu can help the protein be better absorbed.

2. Add egg yolk or blood tofu for more calcium supplementation. Just like when taking calcium tablets, you need to supplement with vitamin D, if you want to supplement calcium by eating tofu, you should pair it with foods rich in vitamin D. Because vitamin D plays a very important role in the process of calcium absorption and utilization. Although tofu is very rich in calcium, the calcium in northern tofu is even more than the same amount of milk. However, when eating tofu, pairing it with foods rich in vitamin D can be more effective. Egg yolks contain abundant vitamin D, so the delicious and tender egg yolk tofu is an excellent dish for calcium supplementation. Animal offal, such as liver and blood, also have very high vitamin D content, so making "red and white tofu" with white tofu and blood tofu together is also ideal. In addition, animal offal such as chicken gizzards and pork liver also play a good role in increasing the calcium absorption of tofu.
