Sorry I don't make tau fu fah myself. Easier for you to buy from the tau fu fah seller.

Hi Cheong Siow Keong. Yes, you can put organic brown sugar. If you like it to be less sweet, you put less sugar. While adding the sugar, you keep tasting it. Once you find it is sweet enough for you, stop putting the sugar.

Hi, Cheong Siow keong. I use 7 liters of water to boil my barley in a big pot. I use 2 packets of barley (100 grams per packet). That means I use 200 grams of barley. Fu chuk, I use 70 grams.

Hi Cheong Siow keong. There is no smell in the alkaline so don't worry. Try boiling barley using this method. Just let me know if you are successful or not. Wishing you all the best.

@@cookingandfood123 meaning that wash fuchuk soak in alkaline water in basin for how long before poring it into pot for boiling? My failed despite I soak the fucok in boiling water to soften it but once boiled it turn rubber & non dissolved at all. I failed cooking this dessert for many occasions. Hope you my advise.

@@joteowee Hi Joanne Teo, thanks for your feedback. Fu chuk will never be dissolved in boiling water. It will become rubbery like you said. You have to soak the fu chuk in alkaline mix with a bit of tap water in a basin for about 30 minutes. Then wash the fu chuk which has changed colour with tap water. Wash it 2 or 3 times gently because it will break up easily. Then when your barley is boiling with the pandan leaves, add this dissolving fu chuk into the barley. Allow it to boil for about 45 minutes until all the fu chuk has dissolved. Remove the pandan leaves before adding sugar. After that, let it simmer for another 20 minutes. Then your barley is ready.

Hi.. What is the alkaline and water ratio to soak the bean curd?

Hi, Cheong Siow keong. Thanks for your question. I am here to help you. I use 7 liters of water to boil my barley in a big pot. I use 2 packets of barley (100 grams per packet). That means I use 200 grams of barley. Fu chuk, I use 70 grams. You soak the fu chuk in a basin of water. Just enough water to cover the fu chuk. Then add 2 tablespoons of alkaline water into the soaked fu chuk in the basin of water. Mix the alkaline water in the water. Soak it for 20 minutes. Then take out the fu chuk and wash it in a basin of tap water. When your barley boils, (put pandan leaves and ginkgo nuts), you put in the fu chuk. Boil slowly for 1 hour. Then put in your rock sugar. Then you taste for sweetness. Simmer the barley for another 10 minutes, then your barley is ready. Hope you will be more successful in boiling the barley this time. If you need any other help, just leave me a message here. By the way, where are you from?
