Taste wise, really delicious
Texture wise, I would prefer this to be a little firmer. I couldn't unmould them
The next time I will add a bit more agar agar powder
Recipe is from Angel's site
What you need:
1 litre sweetened soya milk (I used Yeo's)
1/2 tsp + 1/3 tsp agar agar powder (I will increase the amount a little bit more the next time I make, to compare the texture)
- Dissolve agar agar powder in 1 cup of soya milk. Pour remaining soya milk in a saucepan and heat up over low heat
- When slightly hot, add soya and agar agar mixture, cook over low heat, stir from time to time til very gentle boil (only see bubbles at the edge of the saucepan) and continue to simmer over to low heat for 1 minute
- Remove from heat
- Pour gently over the back of a tablespoon to avoid air bubbles
- Scoop away bubbles on top - if any
- Cool to room temperature and refrigerate til set, minimum 4 hours, overnight is the best

ReplyDeleteim searching for beancurd pudding recipe and i found your recipe (thanks!). and i found others recipe too that adding coffee mate. what do you think?
hello... coffee mate, creamer? I guess for that u need to add water to the same amount, 1L used, not too sure about the taste, though... :)
