It is not the first time that we have made tofu with Thermomix®. Some time ago we published a Burmese tofu that is made with turmeric and cumin. Here is the recipe if you want to take a look:

I like this new version a lot because it is more simple and, in addition, you can give it your own personal touch by adding your favorite spices.

One of the ingredients we have used is nutritional yeast. Here is an article where I explain what it is and where to buy it, although I already told you that it has nothing to do with the yeast used to make bread.

The yeast is not mandatory but I assure you that it gives it a very special touchl, plus it helps to thicken the dough a little.

To make the tofu, I have used a crystal mold 10 x 7 x 3,5 cm high and it fits perfectly because it fits just right and gives it the perfect shape.

When using it, I usually cut it into cubes, brush them with oil and add spices such as paprika, chili, cumin, etc. and brown them in the pan. I know They are firm on the outside and soft on the inside.…a delight!

May double the amounts but, in this case, you will have to cook the dough a little longer. The ideal point is when the dough begins to detach slightly from the walls and forms a layer at the bottom of the glass.

I have not yet tried freeze this recipe. When I do, I'll tell you the result.
