I LOVE "Shojin Ryori (Buddhist monks' cuisine - vegetarian or vegan)!" Enjoyed grinding sesame seeds for two hours - SOoOo ZEN!
Ingredients:
2.5 Oz. White sesame seeds
2 Oz. Kuzu powder
2 Cups of distilled water
Directions:
1. Lightly toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan.
2. Grind the toasted sesame seeds for two hours until it becomes a smooth paste.
3. Add a little water to make a kuzu powder paste.
4. Mix sesame seed paste and kuzu paste, and add the rest of water.
5. Heat it up medium (a little on a low side on gas stove) heat in a saucepan, and continue to stir with a whisk for 15-20 minutes until the liquid becomes paste. (Like a pudding)
6. Pour in a square container. ( Any shape is fine. You're going to cut the tofu anyway)
7. Let it cool. Then refrigerate for two hours. (Flatten the top surface and Cover the tofu with a plastic wrap directly on it)
8. Flip the container and take the tofu out, cut into square pieces and serve with grated ginger and soy sauce. "Wasabi" is more commonly used for goma dofu, so next time I'll try.
This process is like a meditation. Highly recommended！
