‘Baking Hermann’ Shows How You Can Make Your Own Tofu at Home

Did you know that it’s possible to make your own tofu at home? We had no idea until Julius, also known as BakingHermann on Instagram, showed us we can! Julius’ Instagram account, @BakingHermann, has so many vegan dishes, all inspired by traditional meals eaten around the world. His content is unique and we can see his passion for cooking come through in every video. 

He shows people that not only can you make tofu yourself, but there are so many different ingredients you can make homemade tofu from! Traditionally tofu is made of curdled soy milk that had been pressed into block form. It’s a great source of vegan protein, and it’s used in so many dishes. You can buy it in various ways, ranging from silken to extra firm. But BakingHermann shows us that it doesn’t end there!

He has taken to Instagram to give the ASMR recipes of our dreams, and five of those happen to be tofu made of different ingredients. He has recipes for tofu made of black beans, calypso beans, hemp seeds, chickpeas, and soybeans! He shows us that there are ways to make tofu out of ingredients we can get locally, which is super important for reducing waste!
