Hi sinners8, I tried your recipe for making the soy milk from your blog. Could you please explain how may cup of soya beans for 120g? ( I thought it was 2 cup) but I could be wrong because my Tau Fu Fa still doesn't come out right. It too watery even though I add 1Tbs of Gypsum. I sieve the soya beans 2 times be4 boiling. Please help. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the video Sinners8! It's been a while (at least 10 years?) since I've had tofu fa as it's not available here in Miami. If you don't mind me asking- where are you from? You have a very nice blog :)

@leiatyndall Sorry to break you and your friend's heart, but Tofu fa (or Tau Fu Fa as Sinners8 calls it) is not a cooked cream like your traditional Pastry cream or Bavarian for traditional eclairs. Tofu fa, or Tofu pudding, is so delicate because of the small amount of coagulants, that it's practically eating a slight dense milk. If a container of the custard was to fall even an inch, it can shatter as compared to Pastry cream. Altering the amount of coagulants will affect the density of the

Can lemon juice be substituted as a coagulant for the calcium sulfate (gypsum)? If so, how much lemon juice (ml) would be correct to replace 1/2 tsp of gypsum in your recipe without the tofu custard becoming lemon pudding? I have agar and lemon juice but I don't know where to get gypsum--I guess I could scrape some gypsum from one of the gypsum drywalls in my house but it wouldn't be food certified quality I'd bet....LOL
