Tofu Coagulants

NATURAL NIGARI

Also known as bittern, NIGARI is composed mainly of magnesium chloride, but also contains other minerals found in sea water except most of the sodium chloride (table salt). Twelve ounces of NIGARI can coagulate enough soymilk to make about 180 pounds of tofu depending upon its firmness. Complete directions are included telling how to make delicious tofu using common utensils already in your kitchen.

Natural Nigari 16 ounce (1 pound) bag $12.50
     

 

TERRA ALBA

Also called gypsum, this naturally occurring calcium sulfate, is the traditional coagulant for Chinese tofu. Twelve ounces of terra alba will coagulate enough soymilk to make 90 pounds of tofu and is preferred by many for a delicious source of dietary calcium. The same step by step instructions for making soymilk and tofu are included as with NIGARI.
