Freeze Tofu

Hi B. & Daniel,

Is it OK to freeze tofu once cooked as scrambled egg. I wanted to try something as an alternative to white meat.

Secondly, is it high in histamine? I can’t find it listed on the SIGHI list

    Hi @naslam1603 – as far as I know, yes you can freeze tofu. But it will be chewier when you thaw and eat it after it’s been frozen. Also know that histamine builds up with time, so leftovers are often higher in histamine. Freezing stops histamine production, but the reheating may produce more.

    And in general, soy tends to be one of the most common food sensitivities in people not because of histamine, but because of other biogenic amines or “liberator” effects.

    You’ll have to test it out with a small amount to see if you can tolerate it.
