Yu do-fu

Yu do-fuTofu is made by coagulating soy milk, and then pressing the resulting curds into blocks. The making of tofu from soy milk is similar to the technique of making cheese from milk.

Yu do-fu is easy to make, low calorie and low fat and is ideal for dinner in the winter. Cut tofu into small cubes, put a large-sized ceramic pot over low heat at the table, add tofu into the pot and simmer, and eat boiled tofu dipping in the sauce. Be careful not to burn your tongue.

Yu do-fu is one of the feature winter dishes of Kyoto. There are many yu-dofu eateries around Nanzen-ji, which are popularly known as serving "nanzenji dofu". When you visit Nanzen-ji Temple in the winter time we recommend you to experience this "nanzenji dofu".
