Samaira Banga shows how to make tofu at home for under 20 rupees, versus 100 rupees at the market. Soak soybeans overnight, blend with water, curdle the milk with lemon juice, then press through cloth with a weight. Fresh tofu ready for salads or curries.
Why buy tofu from the market for ₹100 when you can easily make fresh and clean homemade tofu in under 20 bucks? You just need 1 cup of soybeans soaked overnight. By soaking, that 1 cup turns into 3 cups. Blend it with water and sieve with a cloth. By the way, this is your own homemade soy milk. It's really that simple. Bring the soy milk to a boil and now add some water and lemon juice. Boil it for 2 more minutes and let the milk curdle. Sieve it with a muslin cloth and wrap it tightly. Place a bowl of water on top or any other heavy object to press it. This allows the tofu to get firm and the excess liquid goes away. And just like that, this soft, dense, pure, and fresh homemade tofu is now ready to add some occasional extra protein to your salads and sabjis. Detailed recipe is in the caption.
