What Different Types Of Tofu Are Available?

Tofu is of several types, divided into broadly two categories: fresh and processed.

Soft Tofu (fresh) - It is the moistest variety of Tofu with the highest content of moisture. This also makes it extremely delicate. It is mostly used as a sweet dessert but some varieties; especially Japanese and Korean are salty and are eaten with pickle.
Firm Tofu (fresh) - It contains a lesser amount of moisture then soft tofu. The exterior has the same texture as the cloth used to drain the water. It is firm yet soft.
Dried Tofu (fresh) – This has the least moisture content of all fresh Tofus. It is usually served shallow fried or cold.
Pickled or fermented tofu (processed) – This is a dry fresh tofu which is left to dry and ferment in the open. It is then kept in containers full of salt water, vinegar, chilies etc. Like most pickles it is salty and spicy.
Smelling Tofu (processed) – This has a strong smell and taste, even considered rotten and is appreciated by die hard enthusiast.
Sweet Tofu- Preparation of this Tofu is characterized by the addition of sweeteners into the soymilk while it curdles.
Other varieties include savoury, fried and frozen types as well.

There's stinky tofu in some other Asian countries like China or Indonesia.  It is basically like smelling tofu.
