Recipe

Wrap the silken tofu in kitchen paper and gently wipe off the surface moisture, then place it in a bowl.
Add 1 tablespoon of the best-quality cream cheese and mix thoroughly until no lumps remain.
Add sugar 1 tablespoon, a pinch of seasoning salt, and starch powder 3 tablespoons, and stir well until no dry powder remains.
Pour the mixture into a pan and continuously stir over very low heat while simmering.
As time passes, the starch will cook and form a chewy, transparent gel-like consistency—turn off the heat when this happens.
Lay plastic wrap flat on a plate, place the cooked mixture in the center, then gather the wrap into a tight ball to shape it.
Submerge the shaped ball in ice water for 3 to 4 minutes to quickly chill and firm up.
Remove the plastic wrap, place it on a serving plate, drizzle with tsuyu or oriental sauce, and serve with wasabi and green onions.

Mix silken tofu and cream cheese together.
Combine sugar, salt, and starch powder, then simmer over low heat until the mixture becomes sticky and dough-like.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in ice water for 3 to 4 minutes.
Serve with sauce and wasabi.

Cooking tips

Keep the heat very low—high heat can cause the starch to stick to the bottom or burn, so constant stirring is essential.
Chill thoroughly in ice water to ensure the outer layer stays bouncy and chewy, preserving its signature texture.
