Tofu IS cooked.  You boil the beans to get the liquid which is "jelled" to
make tofu.

When served in menus it is usually cooked along with other items to give it
the flavor of what it is served with.  Sometimes it is baked or fried to
provide an interesting texture.

In this case you want it plain, silky, not flavored or toughened.
