Notes

When cooking tofu stew, ensure that the tofu is firm and well-drained to maintain its texture during cooking. It's also important to not overcook the spinach to retain its vibrant color and nutritional value. Adjust the seasoning to your taste, and feel free to add other vegetables or spices to make the dish your own.
