HOW TO MAKE TAHO: 2 WAYS (SOY MILK AND TOFU)

the whole the whole no I'm not going to Lake Tahoe anytime soon but that is what you hear early in the morning by the vendor who sells the whole a whole is a silken tofu with caramelized sugar and tapioca pearls which recalls ago it is a quintessential breakfast treat that is peddled by a street vendor who roams around your village and is so much a part of our childhood experience yet who hears the whole would run outside with an empty glass to be filled with the whole such a delightful treat to start your day I never thought that I would be making the whole from home until my friend mentions that she made the whole so well thank you very much for the inspiration so for today's episode I'd like to share with you how to make the whole to waste yup to waste and you decide what works for you okay so Tara let's baguettes before the first ingredient I'd like to focus our attention will to go or the tapioca pearls don't be fooled by a diminutive size it takes so much time and effort to cook it if you don't know the process of how to properly cook it so the first time I cooks ago I put it in a rapidly boiling water give it a quick stare and I waited and waited and then after ten years just kidding after 45 minutes I thought this couldn't be I mean there were still this big white spot in the middle and so I was getting frustrated and I posted it on my Facebook page as well as to this amazing Filipino cooking group and voila I cut all the answers from these lovely ladies thank you everyone for sharing your tips and recommendations so let's do it again let's go so go all right take two under rapidly boiling water what a hop off so go over like five to six cups of water there should be lots and lots of water give it a quick scare and then let it boil oh it should be popping like that and then we cover a get for 40 minutes switch it off and then after an hour we open it and it's done blue house the goal is now hear me rainy and then put it aside look compared to before and after and now for the easy-peasy part the our nibble or the syrup all we need to do is pour 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar and then let it do its core theory from time to time but let it boil until it liquid is reduced but it shouldn't be thick because at it as it goes down becomes thicker so we set that aside to now the fun part I promise you we're gonna make the whole to race so the first option is using instant soy milk buy the regular one not the vanilla one or other flavored soy milk and let it simmer add 2 tbsp of NOx gelatin and make sure to dissolve it you know this is not fundamentally right estoppel should be a banker but then this is the half it mimics the texture and the physical appearance of the whole and I promise you it is a good alternative especially when you are craving for the whole in fact it is even more finesse and if it's like an amp up the hook trust me in this then all we need to do is strain and let it cool down I couldn't wait for it to go down so I put it on the bed I add in an hour it was ready now the other option which is more effective one is using soft tofu remember to buy the soft one what we need to do is just steam it for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the top will become so soft the smell of it makes you remember a whole back home [Music] and now that we have all the ingredients ready let's assemble our at the home so let's see this is the final but it looks fit looks could be deceiving it does look like a real table it's very silky it's soft so it was just right that we just put 2 tbsp of NOx gelatin because we don't want it to be so jelly and hard like pudding I love the consistency let's do it by layer so that each layer will have unable and so go how's that [Music] okay now for the soft tofu mmm it's soft just right but it could still be softer but mmm the smell mean it mimics the smell of that back home so I like it that it's warm because the whole back home is served warm unlike the other one that this has been chilled already oh we put our nibble and so go as well then we do it by layers there you go take them off come back home I could see the tofu hmm it's still not a soft and silky as I wanted to be so maybe we should steam it longer but yeah basic up but it's good this is the swimmer hmm I love them texture but so Silphium that wanna try it I it's a bank best for you okay I won't tell you which one and let me know what you think your missus if you mix it if you break it down that's gonna be done yeah disgusted which is really good okay both very different okay thank you I hope that you will try either ours like if you want more silky or go with the soy milk but if you want the authenticity of the taste go with the soft tofu and you'll never go wrong so don't forget to Like and
