How is tofu made from soy milk?

Tofu is made from soy milk, boiled and curdled with a coagulant such as seawater or a seawater extract, and pressed into blocks, or sold unpressed for silken (soft) tofu.I think it's soy beans.


How do vegans know if they are getting enough calcium?

As long as your diet contains a wide variety of whole plant foods, your calcium intake should be sufficient. You can get your calcium from a wide variety of foods, especially green leafy vegetables like spinach, collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, kale, and bok choy. Another food that contains calcium is tofu. The amount of calcium in tofu depends on the coagulating agent used. Calcium sulfate and nigari (magnesium chloride) are two commonly used agents. Check the label for ingredients. Choosing tofu made with calcium sulfate comes close to doubling the amount of available calcium per serving. If you want to know for sure if your blood levels of calcium are optimal, ask your doctor to draw your blood for a blood calcium test.


How do you fry tofu?

You can steam it but for maximum flavor, marinate it in a sauce before baking or stir-frying it. Always drain it first and squeeze as much excess water as you can from it by pressing it with a heavy pan. You can freeze drained tofu overnight and then thaw before use to change the texture (more dense and chewy). You can bread tofu and fry it. Toss it in stir-fries. Blend silken tofu into smoothies. Use it as an egg replacer in some baking. Bake it in the oven, grill it for kabobs...the possibilities are endless! Stir fry the marinated tofu over high heat for no more than five minutes. (Overcooked tofu develops a 'rubbery' texture). Tofu is very nice fried, microwaved and smoked. I put it between two dishtowels and two cutting boards and put some weight on top to drain it. Then I slice it and broil it, and eat it with a bit of honey.


Do vegetarian diets provide sufficient amount of protein?

Beans, whole grains, nuts and seeds have lots of protein. Soy products have a lot of protein. If you are a lacto-vegetarian, you can eat dairy products. If you are an ovo-lacto-vegetarian, then you can have eggs as well as dairy products. There is a surprising amount of protein in vegetables!


Who is Ali Jawad Zaidi?

ALI JAWAD ZAIDI By Saiyid Siraj Amjad On 10th March 1916, a boy was born in Karhan, a small village in Azamgarh district of eastern Uttar Pradesh. This boy, the eldest of six children was to rise to such great heights that not only would he be a known personality in the district or the state in which he was born but go on to become an internationally known figure in the field of Urdu Literature. This boy, lovingly called "Babu" by his adoring mother, is today known as Ali Jawad Zaidi in literary circles and is internationally recognized as a poet of repute, an authority on Marsiyago of Uttar Pradesh, Mir Anis & Mirza Ghalib, and has written on as diverse subjects as plain prose to poetry, from research works to analytical works. Hailing from a prominent zamindar family of Mohammadabad-Gohna, Azamgarh, Ali Jawad Zaidi was born at his maternal grandfather's home in Karhan. Belonging to a Saiyid family and being the eldest son in his family, he was sent to the local Arabic Madarsa to gain education and proficiency in Islamic Theology and religious matters and had it not been for one of his uncles who took him under his wings, the world of Urdu and society in general would have been deprived of his genius and knowledge. Ali Jawad's father died young and at the time, Ali Jawad was only 11 years old. His early formal education took place in Mahmudabad, the princely state. He then proceeded to Lucknow for his pre-university, graduation (Jubilee College, Lucknow) and Post-Graduation in law, (LLb. from Lucknow University). It was in Lucknow that Ali Jawad grew and blossomed. Although his genius was noticed in his early years as a child in his hometown itself, it was in Lucknow that Ali Jawad came into his own as an orator, poet, student leader and organizer. During his graduation and later while doing his LLB, he came into contact with leaders of the national freedom movement and his conscience saw him take a plunge into the freedom movement in the late 1930's. His poems inspired the revolutionaries of the time and he himself led the student's movement along with other able student leaders. His charisma and dynamism saw him being elected as the Secretary-General of the All India Student's Federation. He was the Secretary-General of the All India Student's Federation, during those hectic and stormy days of the Quit India Movement (1942) launched by Gandhi. His poems got proscribed by the British Government for inciting rebellion against the British Raj. The British government got so frustrated by his political activities that they issued an arrest warrant in order to stop him from organizing student rallies and mobilizing the student power against the Raj. But he was not one to give in easily and went underground. He continued with his work of organizing and inspiring students throughout the length and breath of India. He was finally arrested in Nagpur. He was sentenced to jail for anti-British activity and sent to serve his term at the Nagpur Central Prison and later transferred to the Banares Central Jail. With India's independence, Ali Jawad bid goodbye to active politics, although he could have encashed on his popularity and contribution to the freedom struggle, his view was that he fought the British to free India from the yoke of the British Raj and now that India had gained its independence, it was time for him to move onto other things. He joined the Information Department of the Uttar Pradesh Government and was a Deputy Director there when he was inducted into the Information Service of the Central Government and posted to Srinagar.Although he had taken up Government Service for a full-time job and chosen that as a career, he was never away from the Arts and Cultural activities, which were his calling from the heart. He soon found himself getting involved in the Arts and Cultural activities in Jammu & Kashmir and found himself being thrust with the responsibility of organizing and conducting the Kashmir festival during the summer months on an annual basis. He was appointed as the Secretary General of the Society of Arts and Culture, Government of Jammu & Kashmir. In the early sixties, he was transferred to Delhi and posted with the Press Information Bureau. His postings with the Press Information Bureau saw him in Mumbai and then back in Delhi. His final posting was in Tehran and he retired from active Government service as Jt. Director, News Services, AIR in August, 1978. Being a secularist and nationalist to the core, religion had always taken a back seat in his life although he was religious is his own way. For him, religion was a personal matter and the nation, its culture and heritage had always been more important. He was a member of the I K Gujral Committee on National Integration. He had been a regular contributor to magazines and newspapers. Thousands of his articles have found place in the print media over the years. He had also worked as the Editor of "Naya Daur", an Udru monthly digest and "Al-Ilm", a monthly published from Mumbai. In the recent past, Naya Daur ran a series on his memoirs on a monthly basis. He had also done some translation work (into English) for the Sahitya Akademi (Gandhi). The nature of his job took him around the world and he has traveled extensively in India. He has brushed shoulders with Heads of State, Prime Ministers, Governors, Cabinet Ministers, Chief Ministers, Ministers in State Governments, and other high ranking officials on the world stage, yet he was a man with his feet firmly set to the ground, humble and simple. During all his years with the government, he did not stop writing. More than half a dozen of his books have won State Government Awards. The Government of India conferred on him the Padmashri, in recognition of his contribution to Urdu literature. Amongst the various awards and honours that have been conferred on him are, the Tamra Patra for his role in the freedom movement, the Ghalib award and the Mir Anis award. He has authored over 80 books in Urdu, English, Hindi and Persian. Many of his works are now reference material for research students. He has been the subject of research scholars and Doctor of Philosophy Degree's have been awarded to four students for research done on his life and works. He has served as the President of the Uttar Pradesh Urdu Academy, Lucknow and as the President of the Zainabbiya Institute of Islamic Studies, Mumbai, apart from stints on the Board of Sahitya Akademi, New Delhi and the Sangeet & Natya Akademi, New Delhi and many other social, literary and cultural organizations. He has also served as an Advisor to the Government of Uttar Pradesh. Being a man of letters, despite failing sight, he continued to write till his very end. Confined to his home in Lucknow during his last years, as time and age took their toll on him, he wrote employing a person who transcribed all that was dictated. Ali Jawad could hardly see, but the spirit was still very much alive with so much in that little head on those fragile shoulders. His deteriorating health had added urgency to his approach towards his works. He used to say that there was so much more he had to give to the world, yet time was running out for him. Amongst his various works are Naath Nigaran-e-Uttar Pradesh (in 2 Volumes), Uttar Pradesh ke Marsiyago (in 2 Volumes) & Do Adabi School, which have been published in Pakistan as well. These books along with his History of Urdu Literature (English), Mirza Ghalib - Ek Parichay (Hindi), Mir Anis, are unique in their approaches to their subjects.
