Tofu Pudding/Dou Fu Hua 幼滑豆腐花








Ingredients to make half a gallon of pudding:

2 quarts/half gallon soy milk, unsweetened
10g/2 tsp gypsum
10g/3 tsp potato or tapioca starch
½ cup water

Ginger Syrup:
¾ cup sugar or 140g rock sugar
4 thick slices of ginger, peeled, about 50g
2 cups water

1) Use ½ cup of water to dissolve gypsum and potato starch in a tall pot or container.
2) Bring the soy milk to a boil in another pot. Stir frequently to prevent a skin from forming. Remove from heat and let it cool down slightly to about 155°F/85°C. (Or heat until the soy milk reaches 155°F/85°C.)
3) Whisk the pot of coagulant before pouring in the hot soy milk.
4) Hold the hot soy milk pot about a foot higher than the gypsum mixture pot. Pour the hot soy milk into the coagulant. The gush of turbulence will mix the ingredients. DO NOT STIR.
5) Cover and let it sit undisturbed for at least 15 minutes.

Ginger Syrup:
1) Put sugar, ginger, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil.
2) Let it simmer for at least 5 minutes.
3)  Remove from heat. If a stronger ginger flavor is desired, leave the ginger in the syrup for longer time. Otherwise, remove the ginger.


¾ 杯白糖或140g 片糖，約兩片
四片薑, 去皮，約五十克

1) 在一高身鍋內加入石膏粉和薯粉，放入水，攪勻。
2) 用另一鍋煲豆漿至滾，不時攪拌，熄火。讓溫度稍降至約華氏155度/攝氏85度。(或直接將豆漿加熱至華氏155度)
3) 再次攪勻高身鍋內之粉漿。
4) 將熱豆漿從約一尺高撞入高身鍋內。不要攪拌
5) 上蓋，靜待至少十五分鐘。

1) 在一鍋內放入水、糖及薑片，煮至滾。
2) 讓糖水煮約五分鐘。
3) 熄火，如要多薑味，可讓它浸泡長一點時間
