I-Tofu ingenye yalezo zokudla ezakha ngokushesha ukuhlukana phakathi kwama-diners. Okungavamile, ukuhlukumezeka, futhi ngezinye izikhathi ngokuzenzekelayo futhi okuncane, kungumlando omhlophe ongaqondakali ongezansi ketshezi njengento ekhethiwe, kodwa ayiketshezi. Kuvele nje ukugeleza emanzini, ukubhoboza kwiphakheji layo elincane njengokuhlola kwesayensi. Ngakho-ke yini ngempela?
Kuyini iThofu?
I-Tofu yakhiwe izithako ezintathu: amasoya, amasoya, kanye ne-coagulant-ngokuvamile i-nigari (i-magnesium chloride) noma i-gypsum (i-calcium sulfate).
Ubisi lwe-Soy, olungiselelwe ngamasyayi kanye namanzi, yiyona eyandulela i-tofu ngendlela ubisi oluyisandulela ushizi. I-coagulant yengezwa ubisi lwe-soy ukuze udale amakhethini namasondo, afana nendlela ishizi eyenziwe ngayo. I-Tofu ifana neshizi esitshalwe esitshalweni. Uma kwenziwa futhi ilungiselelwe ngendlela efanele, ngu-oh, kuhle kakhulu. Uma kungenjalo, sibuyele esikhungweni se-albino esingenalutho.
I-Tofu Yenziwe Kanjani?
Ukuze wenze i-tofu, udinga amathuluzi amaningi nezitsha, kodwa hhayi izithako eziningi. Njengokwenza ushizi, inqubo yokwenza i-tofu eningi ihlehlela isikhathi, kepha idinga kancane kakhulu. Eqinisweni, ngemuva kokuba ubisi lwakho lobisi lubekwe, ungenza i-tofu ngaphansi kwehora.
I-recipe elandelayo iyenze kusukela ekufundeni nasekuhlolweni nokuphutha okuningi.Isithako kuphela esizoshintsha ngempela umphumela wakho wokuphela yi-coagulant. I-Nigari, enomusa omunyu kakhulu abantu abaningi abayithandayo, ivame ukusetshenziselwa ukwenza le recipe.
Uma lokhu kungekhona ekuthandeni kwakho, i-gypsum iveza ukunambitheka okuncane okubabayo futhi idala ifomu elifanayo, i-tofu elibushelelezi njenge-nigari (futhi lenezela i-calcium eningi ebhodini lakho, futhi). Ezinye zokupheka zincoma ukusebenzisa u-Epsom usawoti, ozwakala ube mnandi ngenxa yokuthi utholakala kakhulu, kodwa kuphumela ku-tofu ye-grainy engeyona ithenda noma eqinile.
Ngaphambi kokuba uqale, hlala bese uthola izinto ngokuhlelekile, ikakhulukazi uma ungumuntu opheka ekhaya ovame ukwesaba ngesikhathi esithile esithile imbiza iqala ukubilisa. Yenza i-cheesecloth yakho nayo yonke impahla yakho etafuleni noma etafuleni ngaphambi kokuba uqale, futhi ulungele ukuma uphinde ubheke ibhodlela cishe imizuzu engu-15 uma ungeza i-coagulant. Kufanele futhi ulungele ukwenza amaphrojekthi amaningi we-diy-mess, itafula lakho lizobukeka sengathi wenza okuningi kunokuthi nje i-block ye-tofu uma usuqedile.
Yenza ubuciko futhi usebenzise lokho okumele ukwenze kwenzeke. Ungasebenzisa noma yini njengesikhunta se-tofu, ngakho-ke ukhululeke ukuthola ubuciko.
Soy Milk Isinyathelo 1: Gcoba amaBhontshisi
Okokuqala, udinga uketshezi wakho we-soy. Thatha amanye ama-soybean angewona ama-GMO omisiwe avela esitolo sokudla sezempilo enye yokudla noma imakethe. Uzodinga cishe izinkomishi ezingu-3 ukwenza ibhuloho ye-tofu.
Beka izinkomishi ezi-3 zama-soybean omisiwe esitsheni sokuxuba esiphakathi. Vala ngamanzi ngamasentimitha angaba ngu-2. Vumela ukuthi ubusuku bonke. Ekuseni, cwilisa ubhontshisi, futhi ulungele ukwenza ubisi lwe-soy.
Hlela:
- A blender
- Ikomishi lokulinganisa elomile
- Ikomera lokulinganisa amanzi
- Ibhodlela elikhulu
- Isipuni sokhuni
- Isitsha sokuxuba
- Cheesecloth
- I-strainer eyi-mesh emihle
Soy Milk Isinyathelo 2: Ukuhlanganiswa Namanzi
Indawo egciniwe, ama-soybean acwebekile ku-blender enezinkomishi ezingu-8 zamanzi.
Hlanganisa kuze kube mnandi kakhulu.
I-Soy Milk Isinyathelo 3: Pheka, Bese Ucindezela
Thela uketshezi embizeni enkulu, bese ubeka phezu kokushisa okuphakathi esitofu. Ukupheka, ukugqugquzela kaningi futhi ukukhwabanisa nokulahla noma yikuphi u-froth noma u-foam owenzayo, kuze kube yilapho ushubile, uqala ukuphakama ebusweni beketshezi kodwa uketshezi alupheki.
Qaphela ukuthi ungashisi ubisi lwakho lapha futhi uqiniseke ukuthi uhlale uphahla phansi ebhodweni ngesipuni sakho sezinkuni-uma isifo sakho sobhisi sishisa phansi, i-tofu yakho iyoyithokozisa enengekayo. Uma uyishisa, phonsa ibhegi yakho bese uqala ngaphezulu.
Uma ubisi lwe-soy luqala ukuthola ubuciko obunzima (njengobhiya) bese uphakamisa izinhlangothi zommbiza, uwasuse ekushiseni ngokushesha futhi ungavumeli ukuba ubilise. Setha i-strainer yakho emihle kakhulu ngesitsha sokuxuba (i-strainer kufanele ihambisane phezulu kwesitsha sokuxuba kodwa ungathinti ngezansi).
Lungisa i-strainer ne-cheesecloth, futhi ushiye okuningi okulenga emaphethelweni.
Thela i-soymilk ephekiwe ku-strainer ye-cheesecloth. Vumela lokhu kupholile okungenani ihora noma amabili noma kuze kube yilapho kuphelile ukuphatha.
Soy Milk Isinyathelo 4: Cindezela, bese Upheka futhi
Uma ubisi bakho be-soy bumnandi, hlanganisa izinhlangothi ze-cheesecloth ezandleni zakho, udale isaka. Cindezela ubisi obusele obusayo kusukela emanzini. Uma ubisi lonke selufakwe esikhwameni, kufanele ube nezinkomishi ezingu-8 zobisi lwe-soy. Dlulisa ubisi lwe-soy back ebhodweni, uphinde ulahle noma ulondoloze ama-solids, okuthiwa i-okara, ukusebenzisa ukupheka.
Pheka ubisi lwe-soy okwesibili, futhi futhi ngokushisa okuphakathi. Hlanganisa njalo ukuvimbela ukuvutha. Uma umusi uphahla ebusweni lobisi lwe-soy, vula ukushisa kuze kube phansi bese umile imizuzu emihlanu. Manje usulungele ukwenza i-tofu!
Ngaphambi kokwenza i-tofu yakho, qinisekisa ukuthi izinto zakho zinikezwe futhi zilungele.
Hlela:
- 1 T. coagulant (gypsum noma nigari)
- Ikomishi yokulinganisa oketshezi eligcwele amanzi ½ indebe
- Isipuni sokhuni
- Isigqoko esifanelekayo sebhodini
- Cheesecloth
- Isikhumba se-Tofu (noma isikhunta sangempela noma i-rig yokwenza), ehlanganiswe nezingxube eziningana ze-cheesecloth
- Isitsha sokuxuba
- Amakhilogremu angu-2 ½ wezinsimbi
I-Tofu Isinyathelo 1: Engeza i-coagulant ezincwadini ezine
Gcoba ubisi lwe-soy izikhathi eziningana bese ususa noma yisiphi isikhumba esakhiwe (ungadla lokhu noma usilahle). Vala ukushisa. Hlanganisa i-coagulant ngamanzi, uxuba ukuqothula. Gcoba ubisi lwe-soy ngamandla ngemizuzwana engu-10, bese ufaka i-1/4 yenhlanganisela ye-coagulant, uvuselele izikhathi eziningana bese uphakamisa ngokucophelela isipuni ngaphandle kwebhodlela.
Phonsa omunye 1/4 we-coagulant ngaphezulu kwesibisi soyi, bese umboza ubhodlo bese uvumela ukuba uhlale emaminithini amathathu. Hlanganisa ubisi obunama-soy for a few seconds, bese ufafaza u-1/4 olandelayo we-coagulant phezu kobisi ubisi. Ukumboza imbiza futhi imizuzu emi-3 kuya kwemihlanu. Gubungula ngobumnene ubisi lwe-soy, bese ufaka i-1/4 yokugcina ye-coagulant. Vala bese uhlala eminye imizuzu emithathu.
Ngalesi sikhathi, ubisi lwakho lobunikazi kufanele lungabonakali njengobisi lwe-soy; kufanele ube nebhodlela elinobuchopho obomvu nelanga elimhlophe.
I-Tofu Isinyathelo sesi-2: Hlanganisa i-Whey, Mold the Tofu
Yilapho izinto zihlambalala khona. Nge-mold yakho ye-cheesecloth ene-tofu noma i-rig yezinsimbi eziseduze nawe kanye nesitsha sakho sokuxuba, qala ukuhlukanisa i-whey kusuka emalangeni. Cindezela i-strainer encane ecolekileyo ibe yingxube, ucindezela phansi ama-curds aqinile futhi uvumele i-whey ukuba igcwalise indebe. Sebenzisa i-ladle yakho ukuze uqoqe amasondo bese uwadlulisela esitsheni sokuxuba. Qhubeka ukwenza lokhu kuze kube yilapho ama-curds ezwa eqinile ngemuva kwe-strainer futhi akusekho whey okwanele ukuthi ungene ngemvume ebhodweni.
Dlulisa ama-curds engxenyeni elungiselelwe, ukumboza ngesendlalelo noma ezimbili ze-cheesecloth, faka phezulu kwesikhunta sakho phezulu bese ubeke izisindo zakho ngaphezulu kwalokhu ukuze uzicindezele. Vumela i-tofu yakho ukuba ihlale kumaminithi angu-15-25 ukuze iqine ku-tofu eyengeziwe.
Okufanele Ukwenze NgeTofu
Khipha i-tofu yakho efrijini kuze uqine ngokwanele ukusika, bese uyinquma ibe ngamagubhu bese uwubhaka , uwume noma uwuthathe. Uma ufuna ukulinda izinsuku ezimbalwa, yibeke emanzini amasha, abandayo kuze kube yizinsuku ezintathu. Noma ungangeza kancane usawoti kanye nopelepele bese usebenza khona ngokushesha ngelayisi kanye nemifino-kungcono kakhulu ngale ndlela, kodwa isigcwele isiphuzo esisha somsebenzi owenziwe kahle.
Ukupheka kwe-Tofu
Nazi ezimbalwa zokupheka okuthandayo ezisebenzisa i-tofu :
