Tofu press recommendations

[Breathmiller]

does anyone have a tofu press and are they worth it?
We need two tofu blocks for a meal so ideally something small and cheap so I can buy two or something bigger that can hold two blocks.

Preferably not plastic.

I'm fed up with my cookery books pile falling off my tofu while it's pressing

I have a tofu press and I never use it now, I don't find it makes thatmuch difference if you are using a really firm tofu like tofoo.

I just use a large pot and fill it with heavy things

Oh that's a good idea.

I did kind of think a tofu press may be one of these gadgets that sit at the back of the cupboard and aren't worth it. I tend not to want too many gadgets in the kitchen. We have it at least once a week though so thought it might be a useful one.

I like the tofoo too because it's not as wet but i do still like to squeeze it and bake it before I cook it. I had a fantastic tofu once at someone's house and I always mean to ask them the name.

I have a tofu press and I use it every week without fail.
I was really wary about getting one as it seemed a silly amount of money for something so niche, but if mine broke I'd buy a new one straight away.
It's just so convenient.

Oh that's interesting @Snoringferret.
Which one do you have?

Hmmm I don't know the brand, it's lime green and white and cosy about £30

I find it very convenient having pressed tofu in my fridge for whenever I fancy. It means I don't have to think in advance if I want something with tofu in.
