Ingredients
- 300g pack Clearspring Organic Silken Tofu
- 1½ leaves platinum leaf gelatine
- 130ml whole milk
- 150ml tub double cream
- 70g caster sugar
- 8 x 1g sachet pack Clearspring Matcha Powder (available in selected stores)
For the brittle
- 50g caster sugar
- ½ Cooks' Ingredients Black Sesame Seeds, toasted
- ½ tbsp white sesame seeds, toasted
Method
Put the tofu in a fine sieve over a bowl and leave to drain. To make the brittle, line a baking tray with baking parchment. Put 50g sugar in a small frying pan and warm over a medium heat until it melts and turns a light caramel colour. Tip in all the toasted sesame seeds and pour the mixture over the baking tray. Tilt the tray to spread the caramel thinly (you’re aiming for a very thin, crisp brittle).
Soak the gelatine leaves in cold water for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, put the milk, 75ml cream and 70g sugar in a small pan and warm over a medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat. Lift the gelatine from the bowl, gently squeezing out any excess water, and add to the warm milk mixture. Stir until dissolved.
Blend the drained tofu and the matcha powder in a food processor until smooth and glossy. Add to the milk mixture and whisk until combined. Divide between 4 small glasses (about 125ml each) and chill for 1-2 hours to set. To serve, whisk the remaining cream to soft-peak stage and spoon over each pudding. Roughly chop the brittle and sprinkle over the top.
Cook’s tip
Ahead of the game: Make the puddings up to 48 hours in advance and chill. The brittle can also be made up to 48 hours early and stored in an airtight container.
