Prepare ingredients: dried soybeans, clear water, white vinegar, and boiled water.
Start making:
1. Prepare some dried soybeans, soak them in clear water for more than 6 hours in advance, and completely soak them until they are big. (If you usually have breakfast, you'd better soak it one night in advance. )
2. Pour the soaked soybeans into the cooking machine, then add a proper amount of water, start the stirring procedure, and beat the soybeans into soybean milk. Stir for as long as possible, and beat the soybean milk as fine as possible. The ratio of soybean to water is 1: 1, and this ratio should be well mastered. The consistency of soybean milk used for tofu brain is higher than that of soybean milk usually drunk.
3. After the soybean milk is made, it should be filtered with rice leakage, and then the made soybean milk is filtered and poured into the pot. It is best to use a non-stick pan when cooking soybean milk. It is easy to stick the pan and paste the bottom with an iron pan or other pan. )
4. After pouring the soybean milk into the steamer, steam the soybean milk on low heat, and stir it constantly with a wooden spatula. Never leave people on the way to boiling soybean milk, because there will be a lot of floating foam in this process, which is easy to overflow.
5. After the soybean milk is boiled, skim off the excess floating foam with a spoon and cook for 5-6 minutes to ensure that the soybean milk is completely cooked.
6. When the temperature of soybean milk is about 8 degrees, you can stir white vinegar and cold boiled water, pour it into soybean milk and stir. The ratio of white vinegar to cold boiled water is 1: 2. At this time, we can watch that the soybean milk has begun to turn into bean curd, put the lid on it for half an hour, and the bean curd is made. Pour off the top layer of water, and here is the glistening bean curd.
7. Next, mix a simple marinade. Add two spoonfuls of soybean sauce, two spoonfuls of water, half a spoonful of salt and half a spoonful of sugar into the pot, stir well and bring to a boil.
8. Spoon the solidified bean curd into a bowl, and then pour the marinade, and a bowl of tender and delicious bean curd will be ready.
finally, I'll talk about it here. If you like sweet food, you don't need seasoning juice, just scoop a proper amount of white sugar or brown sugar syrup and stir it evenly. If you like salty or spicy food, you can also match chopped green onion and Chili oil according to your own taste. Add your favorite seasoning, such as sesame juice, chili pepper, soy sauce, mustard tuber, etc.
