FAQ:
Q: Can I use fresh tofu instead of old tofu?
A: Old tofu holds its shape better and gives a firmer texture, but fresh tofu can be used. Just make sure to press it well to remove excess water.
Q: Can I bake these tofu balls instead of frying them?
A: Yes! For an oil-free version, bake them in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
