The so-called patina means that after the outer layer of tofu is cooked, the inner layer is still pulp. The wrapped tofu is gypsum tofu, and there is an extra step of soaking soda water.

Press the fresh tofu again, slice it and arrange it to avoid adhesion. Soak in water and baking soda. After soaking for 6 to 8 hours, take out the tofu, rinse it with clear water, pour it into a wooden box covered with cotton cloth, wrap it, squeeze it with a heavy object and squeeze out the water. Generally, you can't press it too dry. If the tofu is dry, it can be pressed until no water drops come out. Well-wrapped tofu brain should not be broken when held, roasted or fried, and the qualified food is chewed with pulp.

Matters needing attention in making tofu skin

1, choose good soybeans, the first step in making tofu is to carefully choose raw materials, and good raw materials can make good tofu. Although the price of good soybeans will be slightly more expensive than ordinary soybeans, they can make good tofu, so the money spent must not be saved. Soybeans should be fresh, clean and free of impurities. It is best to choose organic or pesticide-free soybeans to ensure the quality and taste of tofu.

2. The boiling temperature determines the color and quality of tofu after molding. Because many people just think that the soybean milk has started to boil, in fact, this is not right, because the soybean milk has the phenomenon of fake cooking, and the temperature has not reached when it is cooked, so the tofu made will be red, black and of poor quality.

The solution to cooking is actually very simple, that is, after you see the soybean milk boil, you have to cook it for a while. The best way is to use a real-time temperature display pot to cook soybean milk, which can monitor the temperature of soybean milk in real time and control the cooking temperature independently to ensure that soybean milk is really cooked.
