But, just to further confuse the issue, Gisei-dofu does, in fact contain tofu.

So, bottom line; any dish with a name ending with "tofu" or "dofu*" may or may not contain tofu.

Just to be crystal clear, the dish I posted here is called "tamago-dofu" 卵豆腐 and it does not contain any tofu, although the shape and texture closely mimics silken.

Fry in batches if necessary so as not to overcrowd the pot.

Place fried tofu in a serving dish and pour sauce on top.
