Homemade Tofu Brain
1.
Prepare 150 grams of soybeans
2.
After washing, add proper amount of water and soak overnight
3.
Soaked soybeans the next morning
4.
Wash the soaked soybeans several times and put them in the soymilk machine
5.
Add water to between the upper and lower water levels of the soymilk machine, my soymilk machine is 1000-1300
6.
Select the "fruit and vegetable juice" function, about 5 minutes to complete the juice. After the soybean milk maker rests for a minute or two, start the "fruit and vegetable juice" function again.
7.
The squeezed soymilk is filtered with gauze (the four-layer gauze I used), the filtered soymilk is less than 1000ml, I can’t measure the specific amount
8.
Cook the soy milk to prevent the bottom from sticking and skim the foam during the cooking process
9.
Prepare 2 grams of gluconolactone when cooking soy milk
10.
Add an appropriate amount of cold water (about 20ml) to fully melt the gluconolactone
11.
The boiled soy milk is poured into the melted gluconolactone
12.
Skimming surface foam
13.
Cover the lid and let stand for more than ten minutes without moving
14.
To keep warm, I put a cushion on the outside of the lid
15.
The finished tofu brain has a shiny surface like a mirror
16.
Look, it's shaped and tender
17.
Take appropriate amount of tofu brain
18.
Prepare the sauce while waiting for the tofu brain to form: add appropriate amount of chopped green onion and coriander to the bowl, add 1 tablespoon of seafood soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of sugar, mix well
19.
Add 1 spoonful of chili oil
20.
Mix well and serve
21.
Pour the sauce and start eating. It melts in your mouth, it's delicious
Tips:
1. The soy milk function used in the previous two times has a low yield rate, resulting in the finished tofu brain not forming. This time I used the fruit and vegetable juice function, and squeezed it twice, the filtered slurry was very thick
2. Raw soy milk must be fully cooked
3. The amount of gluconolactone must be controlled well, if it is less, the protein will not be fully coagulated, and if it is too much, it will be bitter
4. The sauce can be replaced with any other seasoning you like
