Question

Did anyone know the recipe of tau fu fah without "sek ko fun" or curdling powder?

Answer 1

Hi there,

The short answer to your questions is yes.

The various types of coagulants are:

nigari (a type of seaweed),

citric acid

lemon juice

vinegar

glucono-delta-lactone. This last one is what has replaced sek ko fun.

The links below should be helpful, especially the first one as I think it tells you where to source lactone in Singapore.

I'm not Singaporean so the names of places doesn't sound familiar. I've tasted the tofu fah made with lactone and it doesn't have any particular taste to it (as tofu fah should be-bland without the syrup)
