Yes! Tofu is not the thing to have by itself. Always should be eaten with soy sauce, put in miso soup, or something else...
In Japan, tofu is used for many things. Menu of stew, grill, stir-fry, bake, steam, or mix with something - just like you use meat.
This is a "steam" menu with tofu. Mix with Hanpen fish cake (made from the mixture of minced cod fish, egg white, Chinese yam, and some seasonings). Easily able to get at the grocery store in Japan.
