Pressing tofu is an art form - you've got to apply just the right amount of pressure to get the water out without smashing it. You can use a tofu press, or if you're feeling fancy, you can even use a cast-iron skillet and some heavy cans. The key is to be gentle, but firm - like a tofu whisperer!
Another way to get the water out is to wrap it up - wrap the tofu in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and squeeze it gently. This will help to absorb all the excess liquid and leave you with a nice, dry block of tofu. It's like a little present for your taste buds!
