(Step - 08) Pour the contents of the blender container into a large pot for cooking on the stovetop or into a large bowl (at least 4 quarts) if cooking in a microwave oven. |
(Step - 09) In cooking in a pot on the stove top, heat soy "milk" slowly to boiling with occasional stirring to prevent sticking. When it begins to boil, lower the heat to simmer. As it begins to boil, it will get thicker and become foamy. If you are cooking in the microwave oven use high heat and watch continually to make sure it does not boil over (when it foams up to near the top of bowl, stir until it settles). |
(Step - 10) Once the soy "milk" begins to boil, cook for another 15 minutes and you will see the tofu beginning to form a thick paste. |
(Step - 11) Add the lemon juice or vinegar and mix thoroughly to get the tofu curds to form. Remove from the heat. |
(Step - 12) If you want the tofu thicker for use in making a Pizza - Tofu "Cream" Sauce, let the tofu cool and some of the liquid will drain out. If making something like a tofu scramble, this step is not necessary. |
(Step - 13) This is the 4 quart microwaveable bowl that we use to cook and mix the tofu. In this example, we did not let the tofu cool and drain, but just added turmeric and nutritional yeast in preparation for making a tofu scramble. |
