3. Pour the ingredients of Method 2 into a pot, add the remaining 1500cc of water, bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer for about 8 minutes.

4. Strain the soybean residue through a gauze bag to make raw soybean milk.

6. Transfer the raw soy milk to a pot and cook until 70~75°C. Add the gypsum powder water from Method 5 and gently stir back and forth with a wooden spoon from the bottom of the pot a few times, then cover the pot and turn off the heat, and let it stand for 15 minutes.

7. open the lid of the pot, wait until the upper layer of water becomes clear, soybean milk is solidified, can be transferred to a layer of gauze or cotton cloth model (the bottom of the hole), with a heavy weight to remove the water, to be completely drained that is the traditional tofu.
