I was craving for chilled beancurd and decided to give myself a treat by adding these 2 wonderful ingredients - matcha and red beans.
These 2 paired really well together and enjoying this chilled Matcha Red Bean Beancurd on a warm night is such an enjoyment!

Can sub milk powder for creamer?
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn,
DeleteSorry I've not tried substituting creamer with other ingredients so I'm not able to advise.

ReplyDeleteHi 5!!
DeleteHi LY,
ReplyDeleteYour homemade tau fu fa with green tea and red beans looks very refreshing to eat in Singapore hot and humid weather. Delicious!
Zoe
Thanks, Zoe.
DeleteHi LY,
ReplyDeleteTwo of my favourite things-Red Bean and Beancurd. Unfortunately my family esp grandkids refuse any food with Matcha in it, but I Love it!
Is there any substitute for matcha, any other flavouring you can suggest please?
Its no point making such a tasty desert if no one will touch it isn't it?
Please do suggest an alternative,
Thanks in advance Mrs Singh, Ipoh
Hi Mrs Singh, you can use different flavoured soya milk to make the beancurd, like chocolate, melon, bandung, black soya, etc. You can refer to http://lykitchenventure.blogspot.sg/2014/06/chilled-beancurd.html
DeleteHope this helps. :)
Great idea to add matcha to the beancurd and top it off with some azuki beans! Yum!
ReplyDeleteThanks, sis!
DeleteHi LY,
ReplyDeleteI am back again with another query.
The jelly powder that you used in your recipes - is it the same as agar-agar powder that we get in packets like Red Rose Brand?
I am confused as you said you have a jar of the jelly powder. Is it another type of setting agent..please do advise.
As you can read I am quite keen to make it, so any clarification would really help.
Thanks once again, Mrs Singh
Hi Mrs Singh, for my chilled beancurd recipes I used instant jelly powder. It's different from agar agar powder. I bought in from Phoon Huat in Singapore.
