Can Chickpeas make HIGH PROTEIN tofu? Chickpeas are one of the most frequently consumed legumes worldwide so it's not surprising that chickpeas are the number 1 most requested ingredient for my "Will It Tofu" series. However, I've been putting it off...Will Chickpea Tofu?
There are lots of videos for HIGH CARB chickpea tofu using whole chickpeas or chickpea flour (like my own take on Burmese Tofu: • How To Make Burmese To... ). But can we make a viable soy-free tofu alternative that's low carb, HIGH PROTEIN and is as versatile as regular tofu?
In this episode of #WillItTofu, we'll find out
- Why I've been putting this off,
- Will chickpeas make tofu?
- If so, is chickpea tofu difficult or easy to make?
- what kind of texture do we get from chickpea tofu? Soft or firm? Crumbly or bouncy?
- does chickpea tofu it taste good?
- is chickpea WORTH trying to tofu?
- how is this style of chickpea tofu different from other recipes?
- how to cook this "chickpeafu"?
I'll answer all these questions and more!
As in all the tofu-making videos in this series, our aim is to create a close alternative to the traditional soy-based tofu. It's low carb and high protein and made with the traditional tofu-making method. That is, with pressing coagulated high protein curds as opposed to the high carb, lower protein whole ingredient tofu like Burmese Tofu which is cooked in a similar way to polenta).
If you ARE interested in high carb whole chickpea tofu, check it out here: • How To Make Burmese To...

Hi, vegetarian Levantine Arab here. Mixing the starch back into the pulp, and using it to make falafel is a great way to use up the byproduct of chickpea tofu, and it makes for some of the best falafel I've ever had. Moreover, if you feel like cutting corners, boiling and reducing the blended-up chickpeas will make a gelatinous Burmese tofu-like product that fries up really, really well. Also, if you add the tiniest pinch of baking soda, and reduce the blended-up chickpeas to a play dough-like consistency, you have the base for true, ultra super smooth Levantine-style hummus.

Thank you so much for these tips! Question: In the final suggestion you give (for hummus), when you say "reduce the blended-up chickpeas," do you mean the pulp only, or the pulp combined with the liquid (before straining? Are you suggesting it as an alternative to tofu, except it gets blended before cooking the chickpeas instead of after? Hope my question is clear. Thanks again.

Hi, Mary! Love your content, especially your will it tofu series. I'm not sure if i'm the first that brought here this idea, but judging by the amount of different nuts, seeds and legumes you've already used for this purpose, i could not but wonder how this series will progress in the future. So what i've tought about is maybe creating a parallel "will it butter" series, where you test if you can make nut or seed butter from various sources, especially the uncommon types(poppy, apricot, melon, chestnut for example) and also show the viewers where they can be used in cooking. Sendig much love❤

As someone who's moderately soy intolerant, I was very pleased to see this! This "episode" was especially enjoyable to watch since you achieved success where you hadn't before, and that chick peas are so versatile as a plant based ingredient (even if I'm not vegan 🤫) . Aquafaba (uncooked chick pea water) is a great egg white substitute (if you're not sensitive to it) and I'm so glad there's chick pea miso too. Being able to moderate my starch intake is a fun plus as well, not to mention how this tofu holds its shape when boiled. And of course, your skillful editing, thorough exploration, and fun personality brought it all together. Yay!

14:48 I looked at dried chickpea prices while I was getting groceries today. They were $1.38 per pound at Wal-Mart in St. Louis, Missouri, so, given the same yield as this video, much closer in cost to the lowest firm tofu here at 52¢ per 100g. Clearly, the price of dried chickpeas is wildly variable right now.

It's not a surprise the chickpeas foamed up like egg whites. Aquafaba is an amazing egg substitute for vegans and people with allergies because the proteins in chickpea juice behave like those in egg whites. You can even make meringues out of chickpea juice!

if you feel like part 2 it would be interesting to know if you can get more with a coagulant, both before during cooking and from the whey afterwards. I guess chickpeas have some protein similar to albumin, like egg whites, their acquafaba is indeed used for egg whites replacement.

I'm looking for a carb free batter, breading and chips. I am just low carb. That starch separation is da best, and there are plenty of starch eaters round me too. I'd put the fiber back in with the milk because the tofu is what would have no takers. Maybe the starch also will make a good batter. That's 2 batter out of 1 operation. I may actually try a 3 layer separation in a tall container. If the fiber goes to the top, liquid in the middle and starch on the bottom I'll take the top 1/2 and the others can use the bottom 1/2.

Question: the leftover water from the curdling step, does it whip up like aqua faba? With the long soak it probably did two things - activated some enzymes needed for sprouting and then started to ferment. Both of those change and break down things. By the way, the leftover mash can also probably be turned into a form of tempeh, if you want to experiment. You can buy the tempeh starter, or there are instructions on using commercial tempeh to create your own starter. Love the series!

if you want a non food use for that starch, use it as a fabric stiffener you can wash off (such as for embroidery) or add a couple drops of essential for dry shampoo

@marystestkitchen ty! But definitely that essential oil is necessary if you use it for dry shampoo... if it's in your hair for like 2 days it definitely smells a little foody... if it's in your hair for just like a day it's hard to notice anything

so, here where i live tofu is very expensive, and i started making my own chickpea tofu the lazy way: i just mix the soaked chickpeas with water, and don't strain it. It goes straight into the pan until it thickens, than into the fridge to firm up. Since I don't mind the little pieces, it's a great way for me to enjoy tofu while having a very busy routine :)

Hi Mary! Love your videos! I wonder if putting the chickpeas and water in a slow press juicer as opposed to blender would eliminate the squeezing through the nut bag? Like how you’d make almond milk or other nut milks. I have weak wrists so would try anything to avoid that part lol

I wonder too! They are so expensive so not any time soon. Might be something in the future though!

Mary, my mom is obsessed with chia seed pudding based on the texture. I was wondering if there is a chia seed tofu that she could use to mimic the texture as a protein in ordinary dishes?

Thank you! Looks really cool! Would you consider using amylase to break down the starch instead of separating it?
@marystestkitchen
@marystestkitchen Год назад
While I think that might be an interesting experiment, personally it would be less helpful for me since I don't want the sugar content contained within the starch going into the whey. I would rather keep it in starch form so it's easy to separate.

Usually after a settling step, the liquid is siphoned off. I was thinking of looking to chemistry for inspiration but realised that brewers probably have the siphon thing figured out for food-grade and cost-effective!

Probably!! Good point!

Yes, though I would recommend an Auto-siphon. They are very nice and available for a reasonable price (and come in surprisingly handy elsewhere)

Recently made yellow lentil milk (gram dhal) and this exact same thing happened! Unlike my peanut milk experiment (which had more of a heavy cream/yogurt texture), the yellow lentil milk gave decent-sized curds after cooking. Since I don't have a tofu press, I just used a fine mesh colander to separate the curds from the whey and pressed out as much liquid as I could before storing it in a container. Azuki beans is next on my list of experiments. I'm not making tofu per se, I just enjoy drinking high protein plant milk and can't have soy and dairy often.

Enlist a friend! Sorry, I haven't tried a good option other than that yet. Some commenters have suggested a fruit press. Sounds like a good idea though I have not tried it because they are kinda expensive!

​@@marystestkitchen have you heard of a chufamix? It is basically a huge tea strainer. You put you beans in it and use a hand blender (stick blender?).. to create plant milk. and then you take out the blender and use a lightweight plastic pestle to get every drop of the milk out! It is less force then squeezing and the milk is also emulsified.

@marystestkitchen 5 месяцев назад
It's this one! GLASS AIR FRYER: amzn.to/45zB0oG (when you read the reviews for this one, make sure you filter ONLY for 4L Digital since they have several models on the same listing). I've had it a year now and mostly I like it. The only thing is it has a smaller capacity compared to my Cosori

hmmm iI wonder if you could make a mixed tofu combining something that worked well that was cheap like lentils with something like pumpkin seeds that coagulates itself to make a cheaper self coagulating tofu? Or just one with a mix of flavours. Also I have been wondering what brand and model is your air frier? I like the fact that it is glass instead of plastic.
@marystestkitchen
@marystestkitchen Год назад
Mixed tofu is absolutely on the to-try list :-) As for the glass airfryer, this is the US version: amzn.to/3XfkYNz But in Canada, the brand is Salton (amzn.to/3NKK7gd). note this is NOT an endorsement** I am on the fence about whether I would recommend this to the average person tbh. But if you MUST have a glass airfryer, this is the best one I've found so far. Others are too small or are the halogen light type which is not really an air fryer.
@alfonsotech
@alfonsotech 10 месяцев назад
Whether it is a good value also depends on where in the world you are. Where I am tofu is imported and expensive, so even the pumpkin seed tofu is well worth here where we have abundant seeds from a pumpkin cousin auyama. Soy and other legumes are easier and cheaper to get too. Also, fresh tofu is so much nicer. :-) Thought you'd appreciate the perspective!
