Another one of her greatest hits:

God she ended up being so disappointing

Maybe she's only had the rubbery shit stored in water. If she's eaten restaurant tofu then no excuse, but it took me awhile to learn to freeze, press, and marinate tofu to get itgood in my opinion.

yeah she's probably only had shitty tofu. i'd think tacos tasted bad if i'd only had my mom's unseasoned microwaved ground beef and the mildest possible cheddar

I've pressed and marinated it, but freezing helps?

freezing helps?

No, it ruins the texture completely and makes it a gigantic pain to cook. The ice crystals alter it to have the consistency of a dish sponge which makes it tough and too absorbent. Even the taste turned foul like you'd expect from something freezerburned, and this was just after it froze overnight because the fridge got too cold.

Freezing just makes it a different style. Usually double freezing to build up ice crystals. When thawed, this leaves it porous.

It's good but not better per se. Tofu is already really good before messing with it much. Just gotta cook it right or use the right toppings.

Yes, it makes the texture more tender and less spongy

Freezing extracts more water and gives it a "meatier", more firm texture. Freeze it, thaw and squeeze rest of water out, toss in oil, seasonings, and corn or potato starch, air fry, toss in sauce. Perfect nuggets
