Amazake Soy Milk Pudding

[Only 3 Ingredients] How to Make Soy Milk Pudding with Koji Amazake | Marukome
Amazake Soy Milk Pudding

Let’s try making a very healthy amazake soy milk pudding by mixing soy milk into amazake! First, bloom the gelatin in water.

Meanwhile, add the amazake and soy milk to a saucepan and heat; when it starts to gently simmer, turn off the heat and mix in the gelatin.

Then pour it into cups, let it cool to room temperature, and chill in the refrigerator for about 1–2 hours to set.

If you use rice-koji amazake, it contains no alcohol, so even older adults can enjoy it safely.
