About

Tofu is a pressed soy curd block that weighs slightly more than an equal volume of water.

Made by pressing coagulated soy milk into solid blocks, tofu has a typical density of roughly 65.5 pounds per cubic foot (1.05 grams per milliliter). Because it is slightly denser than pure water, a block will gently sink when submerged. A standard cup portion weighs about 8.75 ounces (248 grams), packing a similar weight and volume to whole-milk ricotta or sour cream.

From Wikipedia

Tofu or bean curd is a food prepared by pressing the curds of coagulated soy milk into solid white blocks of varying softness: 'silken', 'soft', 'firm', and 'extra firm'.
