Tenderness in sweetness that brings you to peace. A bowl of tofu in ginger sauce brings you the meaning of someone's tenderness and sweetness to you in life.
How to make “Tofu With Palm Sugar and Ginger Sauce”.
My thoughts are making my cheeks blush. I'm happy to remember the tenderness of someone I love so much.
From the kitchen as warm as the woods in the morning sun, delicate ingredients beg me to be served on the dining table for a bowl of attention.
The sweetness of palm sugar and fragrance reminds me of the sweetness of life from someone's presence. It is a priceless right.
This time I will serve Tofu With Palm Sugar and Ginger Sauce. The softness of the tofu brings a soft touch of affection. Sweet palm sugar brings a smile. The warm ginger flutters the chest with infinite gratitude.
Finding Types of Tofu that are Softer and Larger than Usual.
Actually, I've been wanting to make this recipe for a long time which is inspired by Chinese recipes on the internet. Then for the first time, I was able to make this recipe (although maybe not very similar because I adjusted to my taste).
I'm looking for the best type of tofu I can get for this recipe, although I haven't quite found the right tofu yet. I found a softer type of tofu with a larger tofu size than the usual tofu I bought at the market.
Indeed, this time I was walking in a different market than usual. I smiled at the traditional tofu seller who I thought was a treasure! What an ingredient worth finding.
The softer textured tofu is perfect for desserts. Meanwhile, tofu which has a slightly hard texture is more suitable as a side dish with a savory taste.
So this time I was really excited to make tofu in palm sugar and ginger sauce for the first time. How to make this dessert is also fairly simple. We just need to cook the tofu in palm sugar and slices of ginger. Do you guys have a familiar version of this? Let's see together.
THE INGREDIENTS
- Tofu for about 200-300 grams
- Palm sugar, 100 grams or more, according to your taste
- Water, 250 ml
- Ginger, about the size of a thumb, thinly sliced
- Pandan leaves or vanilla essence
- A pinch of salt
HOW TO MAKE IT
STEP 1
Thinly slice the ginger. In a pan, add sliced ginger, water, palm sugar, pandan leaves, and a pinch of salt. Then boil them.
STEP 2
Once the palm sugar mixture boils, add the tofu that was previously cut into thinner pieces. Cook until boiling.
STEP 3
When the mixture boils, the tofu will get bigger because it has absorbed the sauce.
STEP 4
Turn off the heat and serve the tofu while still warm.
The end result is quite mind-blowing. I feel amazed at myself for having managed to make this dessert with the tofu I found in the market.
Although the type of tofu that I use still feels strong like the type of tofu I use for side dishes, I am quite satisfied with the overall taste. It's quite tasty and my family members can afford it, which means the taste of this dessert is worth it.
In the future, maybe I will make my own version of tofu which will have a softer texture with a lighter taste and is suitable for dessert.
A bowl of warmth that tastes sweet, perfect for serving after breakfast or dinner. :)
