01 Nutrition density: why B
Protein is 15.5 g per 100 g, almost all from the soybeans, and calcium is 220 mg per 100 g, which adds a micronutrient bonus to the grade. Energy is moderate at 135 kcal per 100 g.
In one 50 g serve that is 7.75 g protein and about 110 mg calcium. Only calcium is declared among vitamins and minerals, so the bonus rests on that one nutrient.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why A
The list is three items: purified water, soybeans and a firming agent (INS 575). There is no hydrogenated fat, no sweetener, no colour and no flavouring, and nothing on the pack costs ingredient points.
Ingredient percentages are not printed, but with such a short list and no hollow promise on the front, the grade is the top one.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 1
Saturated fat is the largest part of the risk number at 2.51 g per 100 g, about half the 5 g high line. Sodium is 50 mg per 100 g, and added sugar and trans fat are both 0 g.
One 50 g serve has about 1.26 g saturated fat and 25 mg sodium, which keeps risk at the lowest grade.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Briyas Tofu live up to its claims?
The vegan and non-GMO claims match the ingredient list. The 31 g protein is for the whole 200 g block, not one serve, and one listing names an ingredient the pack does not.

What's in Briyas Tofu?
Water, soybeans and a firming agent make up the whole list. Nothing in it costs ingredient points, so the thing to read is the panel, not the additives.
3 ingredients listed. None of them is an additive or watched ingredient in our research. 1 more entry looks like an additive we have not researched yet.
The ingredient list, read for you
Purified water comes first, then processed non-GMO soybeans, then a firming agent (INS 575). The soybeans are the source of the protein, and the firming agent helps set the soy milk into a solid block. No percentages are declared for any ingredient.
The label numbers, read for you
Protein is the number that matters: 15.5 g per 100 g, or 7.75 g in a 50 g serve, with 31 g in the whole 200 g block. Calcium is 220 mg per 100 g, about 110 mg per serve.
Everything that usually weighs on a score is low. Total and added sugar are 0 g, sodium is 50 mg per 100 g, and saturated fat is 2.51 g per 100 g, with 0 g trans fat. Energy is 135 kcal per 100 g, about 67.5 kcal per serve.
Not in our additive research yet: Firming agent (INS 575).
What it doesn’t have
- Only calcium is declared among vitamins and minerals.
- No ingredient percentages are printed, so the share of soybeans is not stated.
What to know about Briyas Tofu
Three ingredients and 15.5 g protein per 100 g
Briyas Tofu is a 200 g block of tofu made from purified water, processed non-GMO soybeans and a firming agent (INS 575). The pack does not declare ingredient percentages. It is bought mainly by people who cook without meat or dairy and want a plant protein that takes on the flavour of whatever it is cooked with.
Per 100 g the panel shows 135 kcal, 15.5 g protein, 5 g fat of which 2.51 g is saturated, 6.9 g carbohydrate, no sugar, 50 mg sodium and 220 mg calcium. The pack is split into four 50 g serves, so one serve is about 67.5 kcal and 7.75 g protein.

Recipes with Briyas Tofu
Tofu takes spices well: scramble it, stir-fry it or simmer it in a curry, and keep added oil and salt low so the 2.51 g saturated fat per 100 g stays low.
Tofu bhurji
Crumble the block and cook it with onion, tomato and spices for a scramble that carries 15.5 g protein per 100 g.
Tofu and vegetable stir-fry
Boil the cubes for 4 minutes as the pack suggests, then toss them in a hot pan with vegetables and a little oil to keep fat low.
Tofu curry
Add the boiled cubes to a tomato gravy at the end, so the 50 mg sodium per 100 g stays low and the salt comes only from the gravy.
