Very useful recipe. Thank you for sharing. Happy day everyone
This is what I've been looking for! Good scale for home kitchen, fairly traditional method. I've tried making tofu many times and always failed, along the way I got to like soymilk itself and just enjoy that. I think I will try again!
Looks tasty,,,enjoyed with full watch from us..
God bless you
I love tofu, thanks for this tutorial 🙏☺️
I'll try this, thank you. It's not been easy to find a straight forward recipe for silken tofu that use a powder coagulant, but now I have. Thanks again x
Thank you for your comment.
Very nice indeed ..
Thanks a lot lady .
I really like your style. Very informative, calm and beautiful. I am vegetarian, so more of those recipes would be nice for my husband and I. 😀
it's so easy, so one cup of dry bean to 1 block of tofu, how convenient. love it. thank you :)

thank you
You're welcome!
Can’t wait to try this...sick of buying it from my supermarket for an over price cost and not to mention the packaging which is not eco friendly
I'm glad you liked my video. Homemade tofu smell and taste better too.
Hi there can I know what brand of gypsum brand. U using ? I really appreciate if you have pic of that thanks u 😘
Thank you so much. I'm going to try it when my gypsum arrives! I have failed 2 times out of 3 with nigari. So sad 😥 So much time went into soaking the beans overnight , grinding and straining, cooking , then I add the nigari and no coagulation, just separation. Very frustrating . I give up on Nigari!!! Thank you so much for the measurements, maybe it will work out for me this time ❤️
Thanks for watching. Make sure you're not using too much water. I hope you have better luck with gypsum.
thanks for this recipe! I've tried it several times now, and every time my tofu yield has been much lower, around 140-180g (with around 380g of soy pulp/okara after squeezing out the soy milk, and 390ml of water being pressed out of tofu). I've been using a rather small blender (500W) where I blend the soybeans in batches of around 200g (soaked). do you think the small blender might be ineffective in getting the nutrients out of the soybeans, or do you have other ideas?
Yes. You need to grind the beans and get as much soy milk as you can out of them. Good luck.
Any recommendations or links of what to do or how to reuse the pulp at 2:23?
And what about the water squeezed out at the end?
What is the storage life? How can it be stored?
The pulp is called okara. I'm sure you can search many recipes of it online, but I heard that you can use it in soup to thicken the soup.
Steps for bringing soybean milk to a boil Approximately how many degrees? please tell me
boil grinded beans on high heat first before filtering
just the recipe i needed. is this the same tofu firmness to eat with ginger syrup? the type served at dim sum restaurant?
Tu Ho, I think you're talking about making TOFU-FA, if so, you just stop the process right after adding the gypsum powder. No need to press out the liquid. Wait for 5 minutes and serve with the ginger syrup.
ohh yes, if you can tell me how to make it tastes like coconut or orange (or pineapple) flavor.. my guess would be at the same time as when you mix the milk with the gypsum?.. nice work and thank you for sharing, i will try it for sure. : )
Hi isn't that too little water to blend for the tofu?
Where can I find gypsum powder? Is there an alternative coagulant??
Thank you for watching my video. I bought my in an Asian grocery store, in the spice section. You can use vinegar for substitute. Good luck!
@@FineArtofCooking thank you ❤️
Is that gypsum is which we use in agriculture land for gypsum deficiency or it is different from that which edible
It's food grade gypsum
Thank you for the recipe ! Is it safe to eat the tofu like this, without cooking it ?
It is safe to eat it without further cooking. It was boiled for 10 minutes.
all beans must be cooked long time at high heat
Where can we buy gypsum powder. I'll try to make. Tks
The gypsum powder can be purchased in Asian Grocery stores. it is usually on display with the spices. Good luck.
@@FineArtofCooking can I substitute with lemon
How much time can you store it in the fridge and it would be safe to eat?
Thanks for watch. Like most food, it should be good for up to 4 days.
Excuse me for my ignorance, but I search "gypsum" in the translator.
And the gypsum are made for construction. To make drywalls.
I mean is that real gypsum? Or there is a culinary gypsum that people can actually use on the kitchen?
There is special culinary gypsum. :) Alternatively you can use nigari which is magnesium chloride. You can buy the food grade versions of these from health food shops or amazon.
thank you for that info,
Instead of gypsum can we use cornflour?
Thanks for watching. Cornflour won't work. You can use vinegar instead.
where can I buy the tofu box ?
Thank you for watching my Homemade Tofu video. You can get the tofu mold from amazon.com or eBay.com. It is about $7.50 each.
Nice, but What is gypsum powder where can we buy it
Gymsum powder is a natural product. It is FDA approved to use in food - it helps coagulate the soy milk and make it more solid. You can improvise with vinegar if you like. I bought mine in an Asian grocery store under the spice section. You can also order it online on Amazon. Good luck!
@@FineArtofCooking thankyou so much ❤️
Do You do anything with the pulp?
The pulp can be used but it doesn't taste that great as the milk has been extracted.
@@FineArtofCooking thank you! I've been wondering this ever since i first saw the process of making tofu
There's lots of different recipes on UA-cam to use the pulp. I use mine to make tempeh starter culture.
Gypsum
Instead off gypsum can u use vinegar or lemon juice
Starie, thanks for watching my video. I've never tried using vinegar or lemon juice. Others tried and said it worked. You should give it a try and let us know the result.
What's wrong with gypsum? It's cheap, and "major source of dietary calcium" (Wikipedia article on gypsum).
É gesso normal ou gesso culinario ? Existe gesso culinario?
Geraldine de Pedro gracias por mirar mi video. Sí. Es gesso.
Es común usarlo para hacer tofu. Usamos una pequeña cantidad.
