Tofu is not soaked, the water that is present in the tofu container is basically the water present in the soy milk, and usually some sea salt water. The tofu is the curdled soy milk, the water is the whey.
Tofu itself is not 'watery' as in 'running liquid', but it contains a large quantity of water, even when pressed as firm or extra firm tofu to expel some of the water content. This water is part of the water introduced during the soy milk making process. A minor portion of the water comes from the coagulant agent introduced in the tofu making process, for instance sea water in the case of soft (or silken) tofu.
Uncurdled tofu, or soft or silken tofu, is usually made using seawater as a softer coagulant, directly in the container or plastic bag used for selling it. It is still curdled, but to a much lesser extent than other traditional tofu. This tofu is not drained and therefore retains all its water, making it almost like a light custard rather than the firmer tofu from which water has been partly extracted by pressure.

When you freeze a block of tofu, the white, creamy texture changes into a beige colored sponge with evenly distributed cells. This is because the water in the tofu expands and forms ice crystals. There's nothing wrong at all with frozen tofu though. It's a time honored way of preserving tofu. Freeze dried tofu is sold as kouya dofu (or kouya tofu) or kouri dofu (tofu)), and is a great long-keeping staple. - as per justbento.comPCH Answer: It Gets Chewier And More Like Meat
