Generally speaking, there’s no single way to cook tofu. It can be used in stir-fries, breakfast scrambles, lasagna, and most every other kind of dish imaginable.
Of course, before you can fire up the stovetop, you’ve got to take the tofu out of its packaging. This often involves squeezing some water out, to ensure that it doesn’t become too soggy when cooked. Traditionally, you can just use a paper towel to press the water out, but if you’re eco-conscious, and are looking for a paper-free way to prepare your tofu, student activist/blogger Chadwick Moyer has you covered:

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

Hah! That’s pretty much what my mother does as well! (Master at cooking tofu ;D)
Except she just places the tofu block in a pan, dish, bowl/plate and lets it sit there for 20 minutes without the first two steps. Then proceeds to do everything else.

Hey Ryan, good to see you guys finally got this up.
Chad and I have been using this for many years, not only does it save on paper but it works very well.
I advise everyone to try it.
(also a side note..if you have a heavy bamboo cutting board, you dont need to stack cans on it)

Well, lookie there… That’s fancy! I always put mine in a square gladware thing, put another gladware thing on top (like I’m stacking them to store them, except there’s soggy tofu in between) and push down on the top one. A lot. I guess that can be a if-you-need-your-tofu-uber-speedy-and-you-can’t-wait-20-minutes-bc-Nana’s-dying-for-some-falafel method and your method can be a lazy tofu day method.
