Soy Milk into Egg Tofu and Preserved Egg Tofu Recipe
------------------------------
▶ Recipe:
Soy Milk Tofu Ingredients:
4 large eggs
1 cup unsweetened soy milk
¼ teaspoon salt
1 - 4x6 inch (roughly 10x15 cm) glass container
1 sheet of saran wrap
1 sheet of parchment paper
Century Egg Tofu Dish Ingredients:
2 century / preserved eggs
2 tbsp bonito
2 tbsp diced spring onion
Parsley for garnish
Sauce Ingredients:
1 ½ tbsp cold water
1 tbsp light soy sauce
½ tbsp aged vinegar
2 tsp sugar
½ tsp chicken powder (bouillon)
2 tsp sesame oil
Method:
Egg Tofu Dish:
1. Oil the inside of a heat-resistant glass container (or container of your choice that is good for steaming). Align parchment paper at the bottom and 2 sides. This will help remove tofu once finished.
2. Dissolve salt in soy milk, add eggs and whisk until well mixed. Pour mixture into the glass container and cover with saran wrap.
3. Steam on medium low heat for 15 minutes, until mixture is solidified. Retrieve and let cool.
4. Flip plate on top of container and carefully flip container and plate over. Tofu should fall out easily. Remove parchment paper..
Tofu Preserved Egg Dish:
5. Gently steam century eggs for 8 minutes to ensure yolks are firm. Let cool before cutting. (Since gooey centered century eggs are more common now, lightly steaming the eggs ensures the yolks are firm to work with.)
6. Mix sauce ingredients together.
7. Deshell and cut century (preserved) eggs. Place around or on top of tofu. Sprinkle bonito flakes and garnish with parsley. Drizzle sauce on top and it’s ready to serve.
Note:
1. Purchase century eggs with a firm center. Using gooey centered eggs will make the dish look aesthetically messy.
Soy Milk:
There are different types and brands of soy milk. The best kind to make tofu with are the ones that come in plastic bottles (commonly found in Toronto Asian supermarkets). To easily recognize suitable soy milk for tofu making, look for ones that contain as little ingredients as possible. Mainly only filtered water, soybeans and salt.
Century Egg AKA Preserved Egg:
An egg with more names than it’s colour, this egg is fascinatingly delicious. Though depending on who you ask on TH-cam. It generally has a very distinct flavour. The middle part has an earthy, pungent taste with a kick, while the outer layer is more firm and bouncy like gelatin.
Century eggs are cured duck eggs in a mix of clay, salt, ash, quicklime and rice hulls for several months.
There are two types of century eggs, one that has a firm yolk and the other is more gooey. Depending on the preference, the eggs with the gooey center are considered more desirable. However, it depends on the dish you’re making. Firm centered eggs would be much easier to handle.
When purchasing century eggs, there are the more convenient ones that are vacuumed packed in cartons - husk removed. The traditional ones are the ones with a reddish brown husk wrapped around the egg. These eggs can be found in all Chinese supermarkets.
Century Egg Tofu Dish:
This classic home made Shanghainese dish is mainly considered as an appetizer or a snack. Usually no cooking is required. This dish combines a contrasting flavour and texture to enhance every bite; smooth, melt in your mouth tofu along with century’s eggs unique taste and texture along with an umami sauce.
Saran Wrap:
Using saran wrap to prevent condensed steam water from dripping onto the tofu. This causes holes on your steam eggs and tofu. Ensure that saran wrap does not touch food during the steam process. For those who are looking for alternatives, you may use parchment paper to cover.
