Which tofu is best for scramble?

I tried all kinds of tofu for scramble but firm tofu is what I find best for this kind of recipe. Extra-firm tofu works fine too. Silken tofu and medium-firm tofu turns to mush when scrambled.

What is kala namak?

Kala namak is a black salt, also known as Himalayan black salt and Indian black salt. It has a sulfurous pungent smell and adds an eggy taste to dishes like a scramble, chickpea flour omelet, and other egg-free dishes. It has a savory, umami taste and is comparable to hard-boiled egg yolks. This salt is appreciated by vegans in dishes that want to mimic the eggy flavor, but some people describe the smell as similar to rotten eggs. Give it a try and see if you like it or not.
