Yes you can freeze, and many people do so because of the effect freezing has on most tofu; when you thaw it to use, it will have a "meatier" texture.
If you have ever had "Pad Thai", a common ingredient to add is deep-fried "matchsticks" of previously frozen tofu.
Bon appetit!

Yes, you can freeze tofu. There are many different textures of tofu. If you freeze tofu, the tofu will have different layers and that's what the Chinese call "Old Tofu". Old tofu is edible; but because the texture is different now, you would put it in different kind of recipes. My mother used to do that all the time when I was a kid.

Yes and in fact you can make some great recipes with frozen tofu. It makes the tofu more manageable and gives it a nice texture. Look up recipes for cooking with frozen tofu.
