Soy Milk and tofu from scratch

Today was another holiday in France.  So I wanted to make tofu for the first the time.  My mom used to make soy milk but we never did tofu.  Couple of weeks ago, I have bought the most tasteful tofu from an organic store. They sell nagari and soy grains as well, so there was my chance to make my own tofu.  The whole process was fastidious, but the taste was worth it.




Nigari and organic soy beans

Soak the beans in water overnight


Wash the beans.  Blend the beans with water.
Use a cloth and a  strainer, squeak the milk.


Boil the soy milk


Pour 1 liter of soy milk in a bowl, add the nigari that was previously dissolved in water.
Waite for 15 min.
 You can see the tofu is forming in a cheesecloth.
