sour bean curd
There are many ways to make tofu, most of which use bittern and lactone to order tofu. This sour bean curd was seen in CCTV's "Early Life Reference" program. It is a traditional method of making tofu that is spread in some areas of Shandong. The tofu made in this way is delicious, fragrant and healthy, has no other additives, and is also very suitable for making it at home ~~ I made a slight change based on the original formula.

    Then there are tools, a few pieces of gauze (drawer cloth); a cooking machine; a tofu mold (the cake mold I used this time can also have a double fruit basket, as long as there is leakage underneath and it can be pressed on top ~~)

    The tool for cooking soy milk is the oversized steamer I use. O(∩_∩)O~

    Let's start making soy milk. Pour beans and 5000g of water into the cooking machine in about ten times. Beat for about a minute. I divided it in ten times. If the cooking machine can't stand it too much at one time, the pulp will be less.

    Look, this thing that looks like milk is soy milk.

    Every time I make soy milk and then filter out the bean dregs, I use a double drawer cloth. Don't use too sparse gauze, otherwise the bean dregs will be produced and affect the taste of the finished product.

    It takes about half an hour to beat a pot of beans, pour it into a large steamer, and start cooking the soy milk. During the cooking of the soy milk, you must keep stirring, otherwise it will burn the bottom. Turn off the heat three to five minutes after boiling. Pour in the prepared two kilograms of cold water and cool the soy milk to about 80 degrees. This is the most suitable temperature for ordering tofu ~

    I started ordering tofu ~~ Originally, sour paste tofu should be ordered with sour paste, but the first time was that rice had sour paste, so I used white vinegar and water to use it as sour paste ~~ Stir the white vinegar solution in three to five times. Stir into the soy milk, stir at a constant speed and constantly to fully blend the vinegar and soy milk until the fluffy bean curd is seen in the pan.

    This is the best bean curd ordered and fished it into the gauze mold. I forgot to take a photo... Wrap the tofu with the remaining gauze and press the tofu with the bottom of the cake mold...

    Moderate strength is fine, which is not easy to describe. Just try it yourself and find out ~ Then let the tofu cool a little and remove the gauze. Don't take too long, otherwise it will stick. The finished product is delicious and has no sour taste. I got two pieces of tofu this big for 500g of dried beans ~~~ Enough to eat for a few days ~~

    Before pressing the tofu, you can use a filter to filter out the solution other than the bean curd. It takes 1000ml. This is the sour paste ~~ The sour paste can be placed at room temperature for 24 hours and can be used to order tofu. The amount of beans and water is still the same ratio, but you need to add 1000ml of water when ordering ~~~
