Is Extra Firm Silken Tofu (as in by Mori Nu) interchangeable for other extra firm tofu (in recpies)

I've heard one is supposed to freeze and then drain water pack tofu (by wrapping in towels or paper towels and placing between two cookie sheets with a heavy can on top). Is this necessary with silken tofu?

1. No, they're not interchangeable

unless the recipe specifically calls for silken tofu. You do not need to drain silken tofu, either.
