How to Store Fresh Soy Products

2022年03月30日

Homemade or store‑bought water tofu, beancurd skin, and frozen tofu straight from the freezer can all be placed in a basin. Rinse them briefly with tap water, then drain. Next, add enough cold tap water to fully submerge the tofu—no need to cover it; just keep it well‑ventilated. If you’re concerned about dust, you can drape a mesh cover over the container. Set it in a cool, dark spot, changing the water once daily to keep it fresh. This method works perfectly for ten days to two weeks, leaving your tofu as fresh as when you first bought it. Even pre‑packaged blood curd can be treated this way. This time‑tested technique, passed down by my mother, is shared here for all fellow cooks. (Note: this approach outperforms refrigeration, but it’s best suited to the cooler winter months; in warmer weather, the water in the basin may ferment and bubble.)

Weiyang bean dishes come in a wide variety, with renowned specialties that are fragrant and exquisite.

The dried bean threads are dry, pale yellow in color, and fragrant with a subtle bean aroma. They form neat, uniform pieces, with a dense, resilient texture that holds its shape without breaking into strands. They are neither sour nor sticky, and offer a satisfying chew. When preparing “Da Zhu Gan Si,” Yangzhou chefs invariably use Weiyang‑style dried bean threads as the raw material, famously remarking, “Only these threads can do justice to this dish.” For years, high‑end banquets overseas have relied on air‑freight shipments of Yangzhou‑produced dried bean threads, precisely to preserve their authentic, unadulterated flavor.

What is the method for making tofu?

What is the method for making tofu?

The method for making tofu is as follows: First: Begin by preparing 500 grams of soybeans. Pick out any stones or debris, rinse them thoroughly, and soak in clean water overnight. After soaking, rinse the beans again to remove any remaining residue. Second: Place the rinsed soybeans into a high‑speed blender, add water at a ratio of approximately 6 parts water to 1 part soybeans, and blend on the fruit/vegetable setting until smooth. Third: Line a bowl with a cheesecloth, pour the blended soy milk over it, and strain out the soy pulp. Transfer the strained soy milk to a pot and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface, then continue simmering for an additional two minutes after it boils. Fourth: In a small bowl, mix 20 milliliters of water with the prepared gypsum powder until well combined; set aside. Fifth: Add the gypsum mixture to the soy milk, stirring gently until the mixture begins to set into soft curds. Turn off the heat, carefully pour off the excess liquid, and transfer the curds to the cheesecloth to drain away any remaining moisture. Place the curds into a mold, wrap tightly with the cheesecloth, and press down with a weight. Let it sit for about one hour, and your tofu is ready.
