About lu gan
A braised tofu-dried product, outstanding protein content, good for vegetarian protein needs.
Health Benefits of lu gan
A vegetarian high-protein staple
100g of lu-gan (braised dry tofu) has 30g protein, 12g fat, 25g carbs and 336 kcal among the highest-protein soy products. Braised in seasoned stock, it is concentrated and flavourful - a practical protein source for vegetarians.
Convenient ready-to-eat protein
Ready to eat from the pack, handy as a healthy snack or portable protein on the go. One 80g serving gives about 24g protein and 270 kcal, equivalent to about 3 eggs.
Watch sodium
Braising usually adds soy sauce and salt, so it can be salty. Pair with light staples and cut other seasoning when cooking with it; low-salt versions are the healthier choice.
