  3. Bring the ☆ additional water to a boil in a large pot, then add the blended soy beans from Step 2. Simmer it for 7 minutes over low heat while keeping an eye on the pot to make sure that it doesn't boil over. While it simmers, stir it up from the bottom using a wooden spoon.
  4. Put a sieve or strainer over a pot or bowl, and line it with a double layer of cotton gauze. Add the Step 3 mixture 1/3 at a time, and press out the liquid until there's no more left in the cloth. It's hot, so use a wooden spatula while pressing.
  5. After you've pressed out 2-3 batches, cool your hands under cold water, and then thoroughly squeeze out the last drop with your hands. The pulp left in the cloth is called "okara". Pressing out the liquid is the hardest part of the process.

  9. Stir the nigari (magnesium chloride) into the warmed soy milk from Step 8, lightly stir with a spoon, and leave it for a while. It will separate as shown in the photo.
  10. When it starts to separate, cover with a lid and let it sit for 15 minutes.
  11. Put a sieve or strainer on another pot, line it with cotton gauze, and carefully pour in the Step 10 liquid.
  12. When a lot of the moisture has drained off as shown in the photo, wrap the gauze around its contents, and squeeze it very gently, making sure the contents don't spill out. Push the tofu to the center of the cloth as you wrap the cloth around it.
  13. Put the filtered product wrapped in gauge into an appropriately sized container, then place it upside down on top of a drum sieve or flat sieve. Do this over a plate to catch the liquid that may drip out.
  14. Put the whole thing in the refrigerator to chill. Once the tofu sets, take it out of the cotton gauze, and leave it in cold water for a while to leech out the nigari. Now you can enjoy it.
  15. Eat the tofu within 2 days or so. Change the water it's soaking in once a day.
