Homemade tofu (white vinegar point tofu) practice steps
1. ?500g of dry soybeans soaked in water, so the soybeans are fully saturated with water, it is recommended to Soak every other day, the pulp rate is high.
2. Soaked soybeans drained of water.
3. Because the blender capacity is too small, so can only be divided into soybean milk, according to the capacity of my home blender, need to be divided into 5 times to finish, so first of all the drained soybean weigh the total weight, and then evenly divided into 5 parts, each soybean plus 2 pounds of water in the blender to beat into soybean milk. (If you have a soybean milk machine, you can directly drain the water of the soybean and 10 pounds of water mixed together into soybean milk.)
4.? Every time you beat the soybean milk will have a lot of bubbles, it does not matter, a little precipitation can be.
5.? Prepare a clean pot, take a piece of gauze, pour the beaten soybean milk in the gauze to filter, squeeze the gauze with your hand, squeeze out the soybean milk, leave the dregs of the soybean in the gauze, this process must be careful, can not have dregs leaked into the soybean milk oh.
6. After filtering the dregs can be thrown away, you can also leave some down to spread the dregs cake to eat.
7. All filtered soybean milk on high heat to boil.
8. Cooking soybean milk must not leave, because in the process of boiling soybean milk, soybean milk is very easy to overflow, as long as you see the soybean milk boiled on the rush to turn the small fire to cook 1-2 minutes after the fire, and then skimmed with a mesh spoon to the surface of a layer of floating foam.
9. Cooked soymilk temperature is very high, so add 2 pounds of pure water to cool down, the temperature almost down to eighty degrees when you can start pointing tofu.
10.? Prepare 50ml white vinegar.
11. 50ml of white vinegar diluted with 250ml of purified water can be used to point the tofu.
12.? Soymilk temperature down to eighty degrees, with a spoon 3-5 times in a circle a little bit into the soybean milk, and slowly stirring, the whole process of electric pulp must pay attention to see the changes in the soybean milk, as long as there is a little bit of soybean milk into the soybean flower can be stopped electric pulp, too much electric pulp will make the tofu tastes a little bit acidic. (But the amount of this diluted white vinegar call pulp is just right, so it is recommended to use up all of it.)
13. When you see the soymilk turning into douhua, turn on the heat and cook for another 1-2 minutes to let the douhua fully coagulate.
14.? Once all the dhana and sour milk are separated, it is ready.
15.? Take out the sour paste and save it for later use in ordering tofu.
16. Leave out the sour pulp after cooling and cover it to let it ferment, and so on to become acidic, the next time you can be used to point tofu with, every time you make tofu in the future to leave out the sour pulp fermentation, so that the next time to continue to point tofu with, so that the cycle, it is the green tofu.
17. Sufficiently coagulated soybean flower and sour milk completely separated, you can use a spoon to serve out.
18.? Prepare a wooden box for pressing the tofu and line the bottom with saran wrap.
19.? Put all the bean curd into the wooden box.
20. When all the sour paste in the wooden box is left, you can press the tofu.
21.? Cover the gauze flatly and prepare to press the tofu.
22. Finally, press on the board, use your hands to press hard, try to press out all the sour pulp, if you like to eat tender tofu, just press for 3-5 minutes.
23. If you like to eat a little older tofu, you can use something heavier to press it for a while, the longer you press it, the older the tofu will be. (I use a bucket of purified water to pressure for 10 minutes.)
24.? After the pressure, open the gauze on a plate is a delicious piece of tofu. (You can eat directly dipped in sauce, you can also make other delicious tofu or stewed fish soup to drink oh.)
