Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:

1. Can I use firm tofu instead of soft tofu?

Yes! Firm tofu will give you a chunkier, more "curdy" texture, while soft or silken tofu makes it fluffier like classic scrambled eggs.

 

2. What can I substitute for black salt (kala namak)?

If you can’t find black salt, regular sea salt works fine—but you’ll miss the authentic “eggy” flavor that black salt gives.

3. Is this vegan tofu scramble freezer-friendly?

It’s best eaten fresh or kept in the fridge for 2–3 days. Freezing can change the texture of tofu, making it less fluffy.

4. Can I add vegetables to the tofu scramble?

Absolutely! Try spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, or bell peppers to add more flavor, color, and nutrients.

5. How can I make it spicier?

Add a pinch of red chili flakes, diced jalapeños, or a splash of sriracha for a spicy kick!
