Ingredients: 8oz of Liquid Deep Ocean Nigari (Magnesium Chloride)
Recipe: Make Fresh Tofu at Home in Minutes:
Per Serving:
4oz Fresh Soymilk
1/4 Teaspoon Nigari
Very important: You need fresh soymilk to make tofu, not shelf stable with anticaking agents from the grocery store. Many healthfood stores or Asian Markets will have it.
Heat fresh soymilk in the microwave to 170 degrees (about 1:10 minutes depnding on your microwave.) this is right before it starts boiling and a little skin will have formed.
Remove the skin and add 1/4 teaspoon in and stirr lightly wihtout overstirring. You will feel the soymilk thicken right away. Cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Dress with items of your choice, freshly grated Ginger, Wasabi Sauce, Soymilk, Furikake or even sweet itmes. The tofu will continue to set, leave it in the fridge overnight, for best results.
