You can eat it raw. Tofu is a common food in life. There are many kinds of tofu, including white tofu, frozen tofu, oily tofu, lactone tofu, tofu and so on. It is made of cooked soybean milk and edible coagulant. After soybean is made into tofu, it is mature and can be eaten raw in theory. However, soybeans are rich in nutrition and generally have not been thoroughly disinfected. It is generally not recommended to eat raw food, and it is safer to eat after high temperature cooking.

Tofu is rich in protein, calcium and lecithin, which is very popular with everyone. With the extension of storage time, tofu bought in the market may continue to breed pathogens such as mold and bacteria. If it is not killed by scalding, stewing and other high-temperature cooking before eating, it is easy to cause digestive tract infection, gastroenteritis, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms, so it is safer and more reassuring to eat tofu after cooking. It should be noted that tofu is good, but people who have suffered from some diseases in the past need to eat tofu carefully. For people with renal insufficiency, it is better not to eat. People with elevated blood uric acid or gout should also eat less tofu, otherwise it may aggravate symptoms such as joint pain.
