Silken Tofu
Silken tofu, also known as soft tofu or Japanese tofu, is a type of tofu made with gypsum as a coagulant. It is beloved for its delicate and smooth texture. During cooking, silken tofu easily absorbs flavors, making it ideal for dishes like soups, salads, and other light dishes where its tender texture can shine through.
INGREDIENTS
- 500g silken tofu
DIRECTIONS
Take out and rinse 500g of silken tofu from the package, then place it on a plate and steam until the water boils.

Tip:
For those who enjoy spicy flavors, you can prepare spicy ingredients to add to the dish.
Chop 5g of green onions into small pieces. Heat 10g of cooking oil in a pan and sauté the chopped green onions until fragrant.
Add 10g of green peas and corn kernels to the pan, and stir-fry over low heat.
Prepare 20g of shrimp by washing them thoroughly and marinating them with 2g of ginger powder to remove any fishy smell. Then, add the shrimp to the pan and stir-fry over low heat.

Tip:
During the simmering process, use low to medium heat and allow sufficient time for the sauce to reduce. Keep an eye on the pan to avoid burning.
