Out of the blue I have this strong urge to experiment instant pudding powder with soy milk. I imagined it would taste very much like tofu fa (in canotonese 豆腐花) , a popular asian dessert. True enough I found that it is possible at Recipezaar .
What you'll need ...
1) 1 packet of instant pudding powder
- I used Dr.Oetker's vanilla flavoured pudding w/bourbon packet, simply because I couldn't find non-flavoured pudding powder.. anyway, the vanilla flavour and bourbon was too light to be noticed)
- cook according to manufacturer's instruction but substitute milk to soy milk instead and no sugar added.
2) Make sugar syrup, to taste
- since I ran out of brown sugar, castor sugar was used instead for the syrup. Brown sugar give a more attractive contrast to the dessert as seen in this photo unlike mine :p
- add syrup only when serving.
VerdictObviously I didn't expect the texture to be as smooth as the original. But the taste is near enough for me. I like it !
Next round I'll reduce the amount of soy milk, so that it will set easier and nicer.
