Silken Tofu Pound Cake with 'Kuromame' Cooked Black Soybeans
- 50 grams Cake flour
- 50 grams Whole wheat flour (or cake flour)
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 30 grams Sugar (I use light brown sugar)
- 100 grams Silken tofu
- 1 Egg (large)
- 2 tbsp Milk or soy milk
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 Cooked kuromame
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Combine the cake flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and sugar in a bowl and mix until even.
- Place the lightly drained tofu in a separate bowl.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and use a whisk to mix to an even consistency.
- With a rubber spatula, briskly fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients a little at a time.
- The trick is not to mix it too much!
- When the batter is no longer floury, pour it into a mold up to 1 cm, then sprinkle in a layer of the kuromame.
- Pour in the rest of the batter, then tap the mold on a surface to release any air pockets.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes at 180C, then it's done.
- While baking, if the surface looks like it may burn, cover the top with aluminum foil.
- Let cool in mold for 20 minutes until cool to the touch, then remove from the mold, then wrap in plastic wrap to store.
- It's very fluffy served fresh from the oven.
- Kept at room temperature, it should remain moist even if served the following day.
- For this recipe, I used a package of store-bought simmered kuromame.
