The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 56 calories for USDA reference amount at 94 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 60 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 4 g protein, 1.6 g fiber, and 26 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari), representing 47.3% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 5 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 cup answer different portion questions. Their values are scaled independently from the same per-100-gram source record.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 56–113 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2710037: “Jai, Monk's Food.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2710037, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 70.5 g | 42 kcal | 3 g | 1.2 g | 20 mg |

02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Other vegetables and combinations
The comparison set contains 122 exact records in the Other vegetables and combinations USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2710037’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2710037’s 94 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Jai, Monk's Food,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2709936 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 94 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 70.5–117.5 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 42 kcal and 71 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2709936
At an equal 100 g, this record has 137 mg less sodium than “Lotus root, cooked.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari)
The source formulation has 5 input rows; Tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari) supplies 47.3% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “Monk's Food” fits. Inspect FDC 2709936 when “cooked” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 27 less calories, 2.7 g more protein, and 7.8 g less carbohydrate than “Lotus root, cooked.”
Only this record lists Mushroom, Asian, cooked, from dried; Tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari); Waterchestnuts, chinese, canned, solids and liquids; Ginger root, raw. Only the comparison record lists Oil or table fat, NFS; Salt, table. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
5 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The listed formulations differ
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Lotus root, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt.
Listed only in this record: Mushroom, Asian, cooked, from dried; Tofu, soft, prepared with calcium sulfate and magnesium chloride (nigari); Waterchestnuts, chinese, canned, solids and liquids; Ginger root, raw.
Listed only in the comparison: Oil or table fat, NFS; Salt, table.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 94 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (188 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 63 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (125 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2710037 with FDC 2709936 at equal mass; use their 94 g and 63 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2710037 versus FDC 2709936 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.
For “Jai, Monk's Food,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
raw versus cooked weight
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
- 03
cooking method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 04
added fat or sauce
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2710037 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 60 kcal per 100 g becomes 56 kcal at 94 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” We display it as a USDA reference amount because it is a database comparison point—not a suggested portion or a claim about what most people should eat.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2710037
FNDDS food code: 75340200
The scaling for FDC 2710037 can be exact while the match to “Jai, Monk's Food” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 94 g weight, 5-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
