Tofu is one of the most popular staple Asian foods and is a great source of protein for those who live a plant-based lifestyle.  Tofu is used a lot in Sho-jin Ryori (Japanese Buddhist vegetarian meals) and it is low in calories, easy to digest and also easy to convert into energy!


Tofu comes in many different sizes, colors and textures.  In this class, we will teach you how to make the Japanese style tofu with both soybeans (the traditional way of making tofu) and also chickpeas (for those who eat a soy-free diet). 



WHAT IS JAPANESE TOFU?

Tofu was first made in China about 2000 years ago and was later introduced in Japan by Buddhist monks during the Kamakura period (AD.1185 - 1333).  After many years of research (the Japanese love details!), the original recipe was "localized" and converted into different variations of Tofu such as silk tofu, cotton tofu, hard tofu, sesame tofu.  The Japanese also localized the way of preparing tofu and you may find them in many different forms and names. Have you ever heard of Gammodoki??




WHAT IS CHICKPEA TOFU?

Chickpea is a legume with many health benefits. It is low in fat and high in protein and fiber. It is the key ingredient for the preparation of hummus and falafel.  We've came up with a special recipe to make chickpea Tofu made with 100% chickpeas to substitute the traditional soy tofu.

interesting new take on the traditional tofu

got to learn more about japanese tofu as I had only tried making Chinese tofu. The chickpea recipe is also very interesting and simple without additional ingredients needed

We LOVE making tofu and watch it jiggled in the end. Shima Shimizu does teach the class with her Japanese origin and most importantly, honors the practice to never let the pulp of the beans go to waste :)

A great way to spend an evening! Soy free miso and Amazake class

I really enjoyed this class and learned a lot. Shima-san is a very friendly and knowledgeable teacher. I can’t wait for my own batch of miso to finish fermenting so I can try out the lovely recipes we were introduced to, too. I hope I can make some amazake at home as well as I really love the taste. 
I’d highly recommend this class as very accessible and fun. 

Thank you Sally!
We are sure Shima-san has appreciated your participation too! How exciting it is to have you at our 'Tofu-making Class' in May ;)
