I haven't tried it yet, but I recently discovered what may just be the
perfect thing for backpacking: dried tofu. In an unassuming package in the
oriental foods section of my co-op were half a dozen small bricks of tofu
dried to about the weight and consistency of styrofoam. If the tofu regains
its initial texture and flavor upon being soaked in water, then I think we've
got something. The protein to weight ratio should be as high as just about
anything except powdered milk, and tofu of course goes great in everything
from Oriental dishes to chili or stew.
