An integral part of shojin ryori, the mostly vegan cuisine of Japanese Buddhist monks, goma dofu (sesame tofu) is made from ground sesame seeds instead of the typical soybeans. This silky smooth black sesame pudding maintains the delightfully chewy texture of traditional goma dofu while the addition of soy milk imparts a comforting creaminess and subtle taste of soy. Houmoto Sesame Tofu’s conveniently packaged pudding comes with all the makings of a quick and easy dessert. The natural nuttiness of the black sesame seeds is amplified by the company’s unique in-house roasting method and complemented by the roasted nut flavor of the kinako (roasted soybean flour), while a dollop of anko (sweet red bean paste) adds just the right amount of sweetness.
Goma dofu is a long-established specialty of Nagasaki with roots dating back to the arrival of Zen Buddhist masters to the Kofukuji Temple in 1654. The local area quickly adopted the sesame tofu and it remains a favorite today. For 72 years and 3 generations, the Houmoto Sesame Tofu Company has worked hard to preserve traditional methods and authentic flavors while producing creative adaptations of goma dofu, like this black sesame soy milk pudding. Many sesame tofu producers no longer roast or grind their sesame seeds in-house, however Houmoto continues to use a generations-old roasting method, ensuring a pleasant roasted taste without adding artificial flavors nor colorings.
Suggested uses: Enjoy as a quick and easy dessert! Simply plate the pudding and top with the provided anko (sweet red bean paste) and kinako (soybean flour) and enjoy alongside a cup of Japanese tea or coffee.
