Absolutely Zero Failure Homemade Tofu Brain, Tofu (detailed Graphic Steps)
1.
180-210g dried soybeans, soak overnight
Southern tofu, which is tenderer--180-190 grams of dried beans, and northern tofu, which is older--210 grams of dried beans
2.
Pour the soaked soybeans into the food processor, add 1100 grams of water
3.
My cooking machine is 1000W. I use it for a while. The finer the cooking, the better the tofu will be solidified. This is very important. I suggest you use a cooking machine above 1000W.
My soymilk machine is 1000W. I usually use it for 50 seconds. If I use a wall breaker, it’s 40 seconds at low speed.
4.
The beaten soy milk should be filtered twice with an 80 mesh filter. The first filter is pressed with a pressing rod, and the bean dregs are pressed dry. For the second filter, do not use a pressing rod, just pour it directly into the filter.
⚠️Use an 80-mesh filter, which is thinner than ordinary soy milk, and can be bought on Taobao.
If you use a soymilk machine, after making soymilk, start from this step and continue to make
5.
850 grams of filtered soy milk
6.
The ratio is 1000 grams of soy milk, put about 2.5-3 grams of lactone
There are 850 grams of soy milk that has been filtered just now: ⚠️0.003 times 850=2.6, that is, 850 grams of soy milk contains 2.2-2.6 grams of lactone
Please remember that this is enough: 0.003 X (grams of soy milk).
7.
Add one spoon to one and a half (small spoons) of warm water to the lactone, adjust in advance, soak in a small bowl for 10 minutes
⚠️There must not be too much water, 2.5-3 grams of internal fat, which is one spoon to one and a half (small spoon) warm water
8.
Bring the soy milk to a boil. You don't need to stir the soy milk when you boil it, but be careful not to pounce it out. You can use your mouth to blow it out. After opening it, boil it on medium heat for 5 minutes.
You don’t need to stir the soy milk when you cook it, or stir it slightly. There will be some paste at the bottom. It’s okay. Some paste-flavored soy milk is more fragrant. Just be careful not to pounce it out. You can use your mouth if necessary
9.
Before the soy milk is boiled, pour the lactone soaked in warm water for a while into the container, ⚠️soak it in a small container for 10 minutes in advance, and put it in the container before making the soy milk
10.
Stir the boiled soy milk quickly with a spoon. If you feel like it comes out, stir with a spoon while blowing with your mouth. Sometimes you have to eat hard.
Wait for about 15-20 seconds, do not directly flush on the internal fat, flush soy milk from the side of the bowl, remember ⚠️ about 15-20 seconds
⚠️Be sure to use a pot with a side eaves, otherwise the direction will be scattered when making soy milk, and it will easily flow down
11.
⚠️Pour in from the side of the container, let the soy milk turn up when flushing, after flushing into the soy milk, you can’t stir it anymore
⚠️Be sure to use a pot with a side eaves, otherwise the direction will be scattered when making soy milk, and it will easily flow down
12.
Cover with a cloth and then cover. The purpose of the cloth is to prevent the steam from flowing into the tofu brain. Wait 25-30 minutes for the tofu brain to be ready.
13.
When it's done, a good tofu brain should be half of the tofu brain in the spoon, and half of the tofu brain is outside the spoon, and it won't break. It is a good tofu brain. After the tofu is done, you can add the juice according to your own taste, sweet or salty, and you can make tofu directly.
14.
Next, make tofu, take a pot and put it on the steaming rack
15.

Press heavy objects for 1-2 hours or longer. According to your own taste, press for a shorter time if you want to eat tenderer ones, and longer for longer ones if you want to eat older ones
21.
In the process of pressing, the juice in the tofu brain flows out
22.

28.
You need to buy an 80-mesh ultra-fine filter from Taobao. You need to filter it twice, once with a pressure plate, after pressing the bean dregs dry, after one time, it will not be pressed this time, just pour it directly into the filter.
Tips:
The tofu brain made now is very stable. I think the key points are:
⚠️In a high-power cooking machine, the time is slightly longer. I use a 1000W, which takes about 30-40 seconds. ⚠️I use an 80-mesh ultra-fine filter to filter the soy milk. Taobao sells it ⚠️about 3 grams Lactone, only use a small spoonful of warm water to soak, not too much water ⚠️When boiling the soy milk, there is no need to stir it, it is a bit mushy and more fragrant. You have to boil the soy milk before it is opened. , Pour in the soy milk from the side of the bowl ⚠️Don’t stir it after rinsing ⚠️Don’t pour the internal fat directly, be sure to use a pot with a side eaves, otherwise the direction will be loose when the soy milk is poured, and it will easily flow down
