How To make How To Make Tofu
Ingredients
2
cup
daizu (soybeans)
1/2
teaspoon
nigari (coagulant)
Directions:
Utensils:
1. A square box (a plastic tofu container with holes poked through the bottom will do). Line the container with a piece of gauze about four times the size of the box.
2. Wooden long-handled spoon.
3. Two-foot-square cotton cloth for straining the "milk" from the mash.
4. Blender
5. Large strainer
6. Large mixing bowl
7. Large cooking pot
- Soak the soybeans in three times the amount of water overnight. The beans should triple in size.
- When soft, drain off the water through a strainer, and pulverize in a blender on high speed for 3 to 4 minutes, until beans are completely pulverized.
- Add 8 ounces of this mixture to 4 quarts boiling water.
- Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes, stirring constantly. When it starts to boil up again, do not turn down the heat but add 2 or 3 drops of vegetable oil - this will keep it from boiling over. Continue to cook another 7-10 minutes.
- Place a wire mesh strainer lined with cotton cloth in another bowl and pour slowly through the lined strainer. This separates the soybean milk from the mash. Pick up the corners of the cloth and gather and twist tight. The mixture is still hot, so using the long-handled spoon, force the remaining liquid into the bowl by pressing repeatedly on the twisted cloth. Be careful to keep a tight hold on the ends of the cloth gathered in your hand as you twist and push with the spoon. If you drop a corner, very hot liquid can spill on you and the okara (soybean mash) will escape. (The leftover mash is called "okara". The soybean milk is called "tonyu" and can be refrigerated and drunk for a few days if you wish).
- Place the tonyu in a large cooking pot and keep at about 140 degree F over low heat. In a separate bowl, mix 5 times the amount of water as the tonyu with a two-finger pinch of nigari until dissolved. Slowly add 1/2 to the tonyu, stirring constantly.
- After 5 minutes, add the other half of the nigari and water slowly and stir. Cover and reduce to lowest possible heat and let simmer for about 15 minutes as the mixture begins to coagulate.
- After coagulation, scoop the coagulated tofu out with your wooden spoon and evenly fill you lined container. Wrap the gauze over the top and let the container sit for 5 minutes to allow extra liquid to drain.
- Immerse the container in a large mixing bowl filled with cold water, turn it over, gently pull off the container, and remove the gauze.
Making tofu can be an interesting challange, but be careful not to burn yourself. The price of soybeans and nigari is negligible, but making tofu does take time and is painstaking. This process has been done by hand for centuries, beginning early each morning. Only someone who has made their own tofu knows how delicious the rewards can be.

Ingredients required for making this Indian style tofu recipe- Serves 6
For marinating the tofu - Use a non stick pan to fry your tofu.
* Extra firm or firm tofu - 1 lb /454 gm
* garbanzo bean (chickpea) flour/besan - 1 teaspoon
* Kashmiri red chili powder / red chili powder/ paprika - 1/2 teaspoon
* Turmeric powder - 1/4th teaspoon
* Salt - as per taste
For the gravy -
* Onion - 205 gm/7oz/ 1 large or 2 medium/ 1 & 1/4th of a cup finely chopped
* Ginger - 2 inch by 2 inch / 48 gm/1.7 oz
* Garlic - 32 gm/1 oz/ 10 large cloves
* garbanzo bean(chickpea) flour - 1 tablespoon
* Cinnamon stick - 1 inch stick
* green cardamom (elaichi) - 2
* Dry bay leaf - 1
* Kashmiri Red Chili powder / paprika - 1 teaspoon. You can even use 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder or cayenne pepper instead. If you are new to Indian spices then please use less of Kashmiri red chili powder to start with. You can always add later.
* Curry Powder - 2 heaped teaspoons. Here is my recipe for curry powder if you want to make your own -
You can adjust the proportions of dry spices according to your preference.
* Canned crushed tomato - 1/2 cup. You can even use fresh tomatoes. Grate it and discard the skin or you can puree it in your blender. You need 1/2 cup of pureed tomato.
Alternatives to tomato - If you have any concerns in using tomatoes you can take a tablespoon of tamarind (imli), soak it in hot water and then squeeze out the pulp and use it. You can even use a teaspoon of tamarind concentrate. You can even puree red bell peppers in your blender. The taste will be bit altered in that case but you will get that red color. Or you can just increase the quantity of onions and sprinkle some lemon juice at the very end of cooking. If you are not on a vegan diet then you can use 2 tablespoons of plain unflavored yogurt in place of tomatoes.
* Coconut Milk (canned)= 10 tablespoons . If you are not on a vegan diet and not a fan of coconut milk, you can use 2 tablespoons of plain unflavored yogurt (curd) or few tablespoons of cooking cream.
* Salt - to taste
* Sugar - 1 teaspoon (optional)
* Oil - 3 tablespoons
* Butter - 1 tablespoon
Serve this tofu masala with hot steamed rice or roti or naan or pita bread.

Chef's Favorite Tofu in Sweet and Sour Sauce • Taste Show
Get the recipe????
Masterchef John Zhang shares his favorite way to make tofu with step by step instruction as well as the sweet and sour sauce that goes well with tofu.
#tofu #sweetandsoursauce #chinesecooking
Tofu is a highly versatile and nutritious food that is made from soy. The first step in making tofu is soaking the soybeans and extracting the soy milk. The soya curds are then processed into tofu in the desired form, primarily in custard-like blocks. A variety of textures may be produced, depending on the water content.
The health benefits of tofu are extensive. It is gluten-free and low in calories.
Sweet and sour is a very popular sauce in Chinese cuisine, with many different ways to make it. Hawthorn slices are usually one of the key ingredients. Chef John shares another way to make it with tomato paste.
