Dairy-Free and Egg-Free Taho (Silken Tofu with Syrup and Sago Pearls)

Instructions

1. 1In a large heavy-bottomed pot, bring the 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the 1/2 cup sago pearls and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes, or until the sago pearls are translucent with only a small white dot in the center. Drain the sago pearls in a colander and rinse them under cold running water until they are cool to the touch. Set aside.
2. 2In a medium saucepan, combine the 1 cup of water and the 1/2 cup brown sugar. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the 1/2 cup brown sugar is completely dissolved. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for 5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Set aside.
3. 3Carefully spoon the 2 packages (about 340 g each) silken tofu into 4 individual serving bowls. Ensure the tofu remains intact as much as possible.
4. 4Divide the cooked 1/2 cup sago pearls evenly among the 4 serving bowls, scattering them over the silken tofu.
5. 5Generously drizzle the prepared brown sugar syrup over the silken tofu and sago pearls in each bowl.
6. 6Serve the Dairy-Free and Egg-Free Taho warm immediately.
