No. Tofu is a type of bean curd made by pressing together coagulated soy milk in a square mold. Tofu was invented during the Han dynasty in China, although several other countries, like Japan, Korea, and Vietnam quickly integrated it into their diets.

What is the food equivelant to silken tofu?

Silken tofu is a food, so I'm not entirely sure what you mean by a "food equivalent" for it... If you mean a 'meat equivalent, there is none. And if you mean 'a substitute for' silken tofu, normal tofu will usually work if the recipe is savory. But don't use regular tofu as a replacement for silken in an ice-cream/mousse dessert; in this case there is no replacement for silken tofu.
