HOW TO MAKE SILKEN TOFU (easily at home!) | Mary's Test Kitchen

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hi friends! OMG DONT USE MASON JARS LIKE ME Make your own silken tofu at home from scratch using soybeans, lemon juice (or gypsum) and water! Fresh, handmade tofu is so much better tasting than the store-bought stuff and super easy to make. Of course, lemon juice isn't really a traditional ingredient in tofu. Calcium sulfate, also known as gypsum, is the common coagulant used in Chinese tofu and makes a superior silken tofu. But don't head to your local hardware store. You can find food grade gypsum at beer and wine-making stores or online (amzn.to/2q4dZru).
Store bought soymilk usually contains a bunch of additives so you won't want to use that for this recipe. These additives can affect the PH of the milk and prevent coagulation. That's why I've included how to make soy milk from soybeans in this video. You'll want to soak the soybeans ahead of time so start early! Buy mature soybeans (not edamame) from grocery stores, health food stores, bulk food stores or online (amzn.to/2H73dJb).
Clarification on soybeans: some fine wrinkles are OK, but if they are really really wrinkly, that means they are probably too old and dried out.
On my previous tofu making tutorial, I got lots of questions about using store-bought milk. So I tested two types of store-bought milk: soy milk and almond milk. Watch to see what happened!
You may have heard some rumours about soy, but this legume been consumed in China for centuries! Soy is one of the "5 Sacred Grains" and is one of the most healthful sources of protein.

    Now I really feel like I have to find a good source for nut milk bags and soy beans (and gypsum... there's only nigari around here, and I'm not sure what kind of result it would give) ! Though just to be sure, how long does the silken tofu keep in the fridge ? Like regular tofu ?

    This is great! I might try making this at home. We have a similar version in our country called tahô and it's mixed with muscovado sugar caramel and tapioca pearls and this is best served hot. Btw, I am looking forward to your new regular tofu video. I recently made one at home but I used a 1/2 tsp rock salt then 3 tbsp of Coco vinegar as coagulant. It worked well for me and I can really say that homemade tastes better than store bought ones.

    Engrossing tutorial, Mary! Many years ago, after first becoming a vegetarian, I tried making my own tofu, with mostly disappointing results. I recall a particularly heinous sprouted cultured tofu that was like eating soft candle wax . . . But, I will attempt to buy good quality dried soybeans and to source gypsum to try this recipe soon, because fresh soft tofu is hard to find hereabouts. TFP!

As you told me, it makes a difference how I form it, the amount, and time of pressure. I'm learning. Now, with this silken tofu, am I correct in seeing that the difference in this and regular tofu is that there's no pressure and it is steamed? I'm not clear on that but will go through the video again. Thanks for showing this. I subscribed.

    Thanks for this video! ... I have recently found I’m in Love with silken tofu! Lol ... I cube it up sprinkle it with cinnamon and put it in my green smoothie bowl 😁... I’m excited to try making it homemade 😁🙏

    i just made tofu with vitasoy plain boxed soymilk (ingredients: water, soybeans, sugar, salt, 4.3 g fat, 7.3 g protein) and a little less than 1/4th tsp gypsum, and it’s pretty good. smooth and very soft but holds its shape and cuts smoothly. next time i’ll use a bit more gypsum because i used less than 1/4th tsp in case it would flavor it too strongly, but it actually added no flavor at all or at least you can’t taste it under the sweet soymilk flavor. it’s sort of a mix between tofu and tofu pudding bec of the sweetness and softness

    You videos have inspired me to make my own. Made a pressed one last week and silken today. The pressed was very good, I LOVED the flavour and texture. I made both with lemon juice, so wasn’t all that happy with the silken, but I will scramble up some and see if I like it that way. If you were going to duplicate the egg/tofu in a tube, would you scramble an egg in just before cooking?

    I use white vinegar for making tofu and I use it the same way that I would use nigari; I can't taste the vinegar at all. Have you ever used vinegar? What are your thoughts on this? I love your channel btw!

    Dear Mary: this is the first time I see one of your videos. Great discovery! You are very descriptive and explain the steps very good. My actual question is regarding a slow juicer "Angel Juicer" we've just bought (it must be delivered in a couple of days!). We had a very normal Juicer, but with the Angel Juicer we are looking forward to do so much more with nuts /nuts creams and even self made plant based "milks". My question is regarding the soy milk. Do you have any experience on how process the soaked soy beans with such a machine to produce the soy milk? Thank you!

    Thanks for watching! Unfortunately, I do not have experience with using a juicer to make soy milk. I'd love to hear about your experience if you try it though. Cheers!

    Mary. You got me making soymilk and tofu a couple of years ago. I just got a Soyabella machine. It's like hiring a babysitter when you have kids. After soaking beans it takes 15 minutes for soymilk, 5 min for almond/nut milk. Cleanup is about 15 mins. Best 100.00 Ive spent. Thanx for all your great recipes and Tips. You're one of the BEST!!!!

    Hey Mary, great video, thank you so much ! I tired making it today and though the texture’s great it does taste a bit bitter - where could this come from ? The beans, or perhaps too much calcium sulfate ? I might’ve put a tad bit more than you did and my tofu appears slightly firmer. Thanks !

    Mary, Thanks much for the simple step by step instructions and the comparisons! Had a couple of follow up questions: What do I do to the final soft tofu (that you have in the glass jar at 8:26 in the video) to keep in the fridge for storage/later consumption? Drain out the water? Add fresh water? Anything else? In your experience, how long can it stay in the fridge this way?

    You're most welcome. To answer your question, you've got to eat it in, like, 3 days max. I just put the jar in the fridge; no need to do anything to it.

    You can try out my okara sea burgers! But usually, I just toss the pulp in a bread recipe (replace some of the flour) or add to soup as a thickener.
