Almond Tofu with Fruit Cocktail
Almond tofu or 杏仁豆腐 (xing ren tou fu) is a refreshing dessert and perfect for a hot summer day. It is like a Chinese version of Panna Cotta but without the heavy cream. Although it’s called almond tofu, it is actually not made from almond but sweet apricot seeds instead. This recipe varies depending on the region. And today, I will show you my simplified version using almond extract and milk.

- 1
In a clean bowl, bloom 1 tbsp of gelatin powder in 1/2 cup of milk. Leave gelatin to bloom for about 5 minutes. Gelatin will slowly absorb the milk and swell up.
- 2
In a pan, pour in 1-1/2 cup of milk and add in the bloomed gelatin.
Turn the heat on to medium-high.
- 3
Stir the milk mixture frequently until the gelatin is all dissolved. When the milk starts to slightly bubble near the edges, turn off the heat.
- 4
Let cool for about 5 minutes and add 1 to 2 tsp of almond extract. Stir well.
- 5
Pour the milk mixture into a tray through a strainer. I used an 8 by 8 tray. Let it cool down to room temp before putting in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 hours.
- 6
When the almond tofu is completely solidified, cut into bite-size.
- 7
Add 1 can of fruit cocktail into the almond tofu cubes. And mix everything together. Don’t use too much force when mixing because you don’t want to break up the almond tofu.
- 8
Serve by transferring the almond tofu with fruit cocktail into individual bowls
