I've made my own soy milk and tofu. I have a Blendtec (or you can use a Vitamix) and after cooking the soybeans, I blend it and the okara mixes almost smooth...no need to separate it. I love the soy milk while hot and fresh made. While the tofu is still warm, after being pressed, you can eat it fresh. Just mix a spoon of soy sauce and a bit of brown sugar to dip it in. Delicious.
Nigari is magnesium chloride. You can also us calcium sulfate - just make sure it's food grade. Amazon sells nigari as do several on-line stores - Google soya joy.
This video is not only instructive but also educative as well. I enjoyed learning where actually Tofu originated from and must say Tofu making ways are indeed good to learn. Thanks for the video.
My ex boyfriend is Japanese. He learn to make the soy milk from his mother. He just soak the beans over night. Then wash it and cook it in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes with loads of water. After cooked, he separates the beans from the water. The water is the milk. To make the tofu we just need to add lemon in the milk, that is on heat.
Star Cat That is pretty cool! Tbh, I haven't had tofu since I was 4 (ten years ago) and ever since I've been trying to find a way how to make them. some say it's a long process then some can do it simple like your ex. :-) '3'
That's great to know. Thanks. You said, add lemon and that is on heat? Not sure what that means--does it mean when the milk is hot then you add the lemon?
i found your "way to do it" so good and simple. i have already soymilk i bought from a friend who is selling " taho" here. and it's fresh. hope to do it well ;) thanks.
Thank you for posting this great video. It is nice to see it made and spurs me on to have a go :D - and thank you for giving imperial measurements as well :D
Thanks for the clear instructions. I made some with lemon a few days ago and it turned out ok. Today, I tried again, and it didn't work. I'm going to try to find some nigari, for next time.
hi there love your vid very informative. i was wondering do you have specs on how to make the tofu press. i live in ireland and you cant get them here. i'm quite handy at making stuff and would love to make one. what wood do you use and would you have any measurements i could use. thank you
wow, great video, thanks! hope I can find all the things like the wooden thing and stuff overhere in Holland.... but thank you very much this looks like a lot of fun to do.....
you can buy the tofu box on amazon. There are several. Just read the reviews. For soy beans I recommend laura soybeans. They are gmo free and organic without the certification. The grow the best soybeans around.
Nice video but taking too many step to do it. I'm Asian and how we make it doesn't take that much effort. Soak, ground, get the soy milk, boil and use lemon juice or lime juice. Press and you get tofu.
Thanks So Much! :) Why, If I might ask a question, must you throw away the water that the beans where soaking in? I've heard that with other bean recipes. What will happen if I use that original water in with the rest of the recipe???
About how much milk is used to make the tofu? This is one part that's not often mentioned in tutorials and its easier to replicate depending on how much you want to make. I make my soy milk in a soy maker so the water added to beans etc differ. Many thanks x
nice watching. can one use nigari and calcium sulfate together or each one differently? what about my area i can find nigari what will i use to make tofu? reply please............
Hi, I have a question to make; I made tofu, but the result was a bitter tofu and not a white tofu, it was yellow.¿ What´s the reason of the bitterness? how can I prepare a white tofu ? What´s the secret?? Please answer me. I´m from Venezuela
beautiful work just like a pro ,I want to buy nigari ,is cheap ,the problem I have is the radiation from the water in japan ,where is the best nigari ,you don't think the Japanese will sell salt from around the contamination area ? I hope not
I don't know why but I just can't stand soy milk. I've tried and tried and tried but it always gives me a head ack and u feel like I'm going to throw up. Tofu is nice thoe
This woman turn the recipe very complicated. It is easier to crush the soybean and to strain the raw milk before putting it on the fire. There is no danger of burning your hands and there is no need for gloves.

Nigari is magnesium chloride. It's made from sea water. When you add it to soy milk it coagulates - and this is what's pressed and makes tofu.

You need to Plant Yo BEANS before eat tofu!
YOu need to learn lesson from him!

you didn't mention blending the soybeans.

Very informative and engaging because of the way you present it. Well done!
i found your "way to do it" so good and simple. i have already soymilk i bought from a friend who is selling " taho" here. and it's fresh. hope to do it well ;) thanks.
Thank you my dear, I will try making it.
Thank you for posting this great video. It is nice to see it made and spurs me on to have a go :D - and thank you for giving imperial measurements as well :D
Does this make firm, extra firm, silken? and how do you make the other ones, just press it less?
we make tofu also and use epson salts for the coagulant
Yes I use epsom salts as well...and it always comes out great..
I will definitely give this a try, my family are vegetarians and it gets so expensive; this video just saved me a ton !
Thanks for the clear instructions. I made some with lemon a few days ago and it turned out ok. Today, I tried again, and it didn't work. I'm going to try to find some nigari, for next time.
marvellous! superb! I love tofu...thanks for the demo

but thank you very much this looks like a lot of fun to do.....
Whoa ! U r really planning on making this ...?
@AV143ify Probably would not recommend it. It usually has dye in it and probably not food grade
Traditionally, we use a machine(basically two large stone ) to grind the soybean,I guess it tastes different from using the blender.
Also the process are not that simple...but this is what a home made one can get
you can buy the tofu box on amazon. There are several. Just read the reviews. For soy beans I recommend laura soybeans. They are gmo free and organic without the certification. The grow the best soybeans around.
you can use lime or lemon instead of nigari or calcium sulfate.
I'm going to try this ,I like tofi
@htral no actually it is actually a byproduct of salt making, primarily magnesium chloride.
اممم. يبدو لذيذ . شكرا على هذه الوصفة
How much do you do it❤
Nice video but taking too many step to do it. I'm Asian and how we make it doesn't take that much effort. Soak, ground, get the soy milk, boil and use lemon juice or lime juice. Press and you get tofu.
hmm using lemon lime as coagulant = any citrus fruit juice work? like if I use orange juice or grape juice would it work?
Gem Bocobo any acidic juice works.
Gem Bocobo Gypsum is better. Don't use orange juice or grape juice.
Their are so many kinds of tofu. Your method tastes a bit rough. Also if you wanna make nice tofu, you need a great more effort, not less...
Bill Leif traditionally, it must be gypsum. But you know gypsum might be bad for health, so I'm not sure if western people think it's ok...
Thanks So Much! :) Why, If I might ask a question, must you throw away the water that the beans where soaking in? I've heard that with other bean recipes. What will happen if I use that original water in with the rest of the recipe???
Thank You!! I always wanted to know :)

It makes firm or extra firm - just depends on how long you press it. This isn't silken tofu.
Tofu is basically bean cheese without the water! Sweet!
and stinky tofu is just like a sort of strong smelly cheese.
LOL I like your comment better!
many times I respect ancient chinese as genius. chinese backwardness was the result of feudalism,like westen medieval .
thank you. :)
You are most welcome, Joel! :-)

Dawn Heald it doesmt mater how much water or milk you use because the curds seperate
nice watching. can one use nigari and calcium sulfate together or each one differently? what about my area i can find nigari what will i use to make tofu? reply please............
tuwi veni
Lol. 2 years later
Can we add lemon juice
can anything else be used aside from nigari? gelatin, or rennet like in cheese?
Please what did you add to the water to separate it.
hi if u dont have a press what can be use to press it out
Would this tofu hold up well in the freezer?
Could you please show how to make silken tofu too?
Dawn Heald this is silken tofu

Can you make tofu out of frozen fresh edamame? I can not get dry soybeans anywhere exept online
Did it not came from japan?
Went back and listened closer and figured out the 4 to 5 minutes. LOL Have a good day
and what is nugare or how ever you spell it can't you just use salt?
Hi, I have a question to make; I made tofu, but the result was a bitter tofu and not a white tofu, it was yellow.¿ What´s the reason of the bitterness? how can I prepare a white tofu ? What´s the secret?? Please answer me. I´m from Venezuela
Yellow is not bad, it's tofu’s normal color. As long as your tofu taste good, don't worry about it:) I'm Chinese.
white tofu? they probably bleach either the beans or the soy milk with bleaching agent.
you need to soak it in cold water to remove the bitterness
This was made before I was born
Very,very interesting,but, is it worth all that trouble? Why cannot we buy tofu directly from the stores?
People who really care about good taste may choose do it by themselves. Tofu from stores are not always yummy.
You can be sure that it's nothing but Tofu, if u make it :D

2009? More like 1989. I got a very 80's PBS vibe from this video.

Thank you for posting this great vidoe. It is nice to see it made and spurs me on to have a go :D
very helpful' thanks!
Can "TOFU" be made from beans other than soy?
+GLFH you should be looking for 'vegan cheese' which is basically the same technique but instead of soybeans - other seeds and nuts are used.
There is Burmese Tofu which is made from chickpea flour.
180 celsius?
fahrenheit
Can I use lime as a coagulant like how they make cottage cheese?
THANK YOU
Video starts at 1:30 btw love it n ty
beautiful work just like a pro ,I want to buy nigari ,is cheap ,the problem I have is the radiation from the water in japan ,where is the best nigari ,you don't think the Japanese will sell salt from around the contamination area ? I hope not
I think I'll just buy some tofu thanks..
Lol
And than i have to deliver the Tofu 4 a.m. with my dad's AE86 corolla.

I don't know why but I just can't stand soy milk. I've tried and tried and tried but it always gives me a head ack and u feel like I'm going to throw up. Tofu is nice thoe
Iyanna Rankin were u drinking "plain soy milk"? it doesnt taste good until you add something sweet in it
I love U video. You remember mee my mom making tofu =).
Why go through all the problems. and buying Nigari when it is so expensive. Mom uses eggshells and vinegar when making tofu.
Tast different.

very good pro
grind for 45 minutes? I would think most food processors aren't meant for this much one time use.
It's 4 to 5 minutes 😂😂
Life is life vs war i just know.
I'm not confortable with eating soy because I don't like GMO in my diet!
Buy organic and you skip the GMO.
+Vincenzo Pisano "im not comfortable eating apples because i dont like gmo in my diet!"
+Delectable Planet I don't understand, where is the fermentation process ?
I've heard that only eat fermented soybeans because they are better .
+Vincenzo Pisano So go buy some Non GMO soy beans.
is it really all gmo

第一次學 有點意外 原來要用蛋殼
不用這麼麻煩，用檸檬或醋也能做豆腐，更天然。

nigari makes it taste bitter!
nigari aka calcium sulfate
4-5 minutes. Didn't know if you were serious or not.
