Gone are the days when storing tofu was a hassle. Storage isn't such a big deal anymore. You used to need to immediately open the tofu and place it in fresh water, and replace the water every day to get any real shelf-life out of it. We vacuum pack our tofu, which means you can keep it in the refrigerator without touching it until you're ready to use it.
In the rare case that you don't use the whole package of tofu, you can find a Tupperware or cottage cheese container to store it in. When storing leftover tofu, you will need to cover it in water, and try to change the water once a day to extend its shelf life to seven to 10 days. Try not to touch the tofu with your bare hands.
If the tofu has a rotten smell or if it's become pink or orange, that means it’s gone bad and should be discarded. If the tofu has turned a yellowish-brown, it’s sort of like cheese that’s been exposed to air; simply cut off the affected part.
Tofu with a sour or lemony odor has come close to the end of its life but is still usable if cooked, steamed or parboiled.
