I went against the warning written in the directions which says that "boiling tofu in unsalted broth can cause it to crumble, and I ended up with fluffy tofu.

Adding a little sugar makes it less soggy. But if you don't add it, the texture will still be the same. If you have a large container, you can make 2 - 3 pieces all at once. Set the microwave for 4 minutes, but when the water starts to boil, take it out. Recipe by Manmaruraate

or add to miso soup (drop gently when the soup is ready to eat) and enjoy.

You could also chill the tofu after Step 4 and then top it with mentsuyu and serve ♪

If you add it to something salty, the liquid in the tofu will gradually seep out and will harden, so make sure you add it just before eating.
