tofu pudding

Soft soy custard

Tofu pudding is a soft, silky dessert made from freshly coagulated soy milk, popular across East and Southeast Asia.

The texture falls between custard and soft tofu—delicate enough to eat with a spoon.

It's served warm or cold with sweet toppings like ginger syrup, brown sugar, or red beans: We stopped for tofu pudding after dinner.

Also called doufu hua or tau fu fa.
