Pack size

From the same producers of the amazing Banrai Soy Milk (available here) we have the other piece of the home-made tofu puzzle. Jun-Nigari is a natural seawater derivative making it an ideal coagulant for the production of Tofu.

Available individually, in a pack or 5 & a pack of 10.

Store at room temperature, do not refrigerate.

Method for making tofu:

  1. Place the soy milk before in the refrigerator overnight to cool (this step is not essential but recommended for best results)
  2. Pour 125ml of soy milk in a 12 cm ramekin
  3. Add 5 ml of Nigari to the soy milk
  4. Mix well and place the ramekin in a bain-marie covering for steaming

For silky tofu remove after 10 minutes, if a firmer tofu is preferred double the amount of Nigari

Water (85.1%), Sodium Chloride (8.6%), Magnesium Chloride (3.6%), Magnesium Sulfate (1%), Potassium Chloride (1.7%)

For allergens, see ingredients in bold.

Good product

It works fine, but I would have preferred crystals instead of tiny 5 ml liquid packets

Hi Renate, thanks for the feedback and really happy the nigari sachets did the job. We will have a look into the crystals you mention

It's so easy!

I've never dreamed that it is this easy to make Tofu.
I purchased the special soy milk from them (Alpro will not work!) and as directed warm it up to 80 detrees, add the contents of these nigari and stir. That's it! After 10 minutes or so, very soft Tofu was ready. I drained it and ate it soft but I could have pressed the curd to make firmer tofu.
Very pleased. Thank you for stocking those!

Thanks Mitsuko and really happy the tofu making worked out so well for you :) hope you continue to enjoy it!
