Works great
Made tofu for the first time and the Nigari worked great. Followed the directions that came with the product using homemade soy milk. Very delicious. Used it to make miso soup. Highly recommend.

It is good but make sure to keep it in a cool temperature pantry
This is the second bottle I get of this Nigari. The first one (glass bottled) worked really well, although at the end I had to add more Nigari for the soy milk to coagulate. The second bottle came in a plastic container and I am keeping it in a pantry outside the kitchen to avoid it being exposed to heat.Other than that it works well, if it does not make sure your soy milk is not watery.

Works fast
We use a soy milk maker. We strain the milk add the coagulant, and after a few minutes press the in cheesecloth with a cool little press and hey presto; tofu!

Didn’t work for me - then it did...
Unfortunately, doesn’t seem to work to coagulate soy milk for Tofu. I followed the recipe that came with the bottle (even used a thermometer) and a recipe in Miyokos Vegan Pantry cookbook. Neither coagulated at all. I didn’t make my own soy milk but I did use a refrigerated organic one. :-( Wasted of a lot of soy milk. If I try again and it works, I will update the review.I tried a second time with homemade soy milk and it coagulated. I suspect it was a combination of temperature (maybe I didn't have it hot enough before?) and possibly the homemade milk versus store bought. I did also increase the amount of Nigiri I used - I had to hunt around to find a conversion between liquid and dry and decided to double the amount used for my recipe. More complicated to make Tofu than I expected but I did it!

Easy homemade Tofu and Silken Tofu. Good Job Nigari Vancouver Island Sea Salt.
Received our beautifully packaged bottle of Nigari. Packaged well & cushioned with plastic bubble.Made our very first time TOFU and it was a success. My husband sautéed Tofu & made the dish very tasty & yummy.Made my favorite snack when I was growing up, TAHO (Silken Tofu) . Can’t believe we made our very own Taho from scratch. Very tasty, no bitter taste at all. Very yummy with caramelized sugar and BOBA (pearl balls).. Glad we learned how to make it. We’ll be making this more often.Thanks so much Nigari Vancouver Island Sea Salt.

Hooray for curds!
I think I’ve finally mastered making tofu! This coagulant worked great! Prior to buying this I used powdered nagari and had mixed results. Now that could have just been inexperience and method....I honestly don’t know, but I will stick with this liquid as I was so excited to finally achieved a beautiful block of tofu! The only improvement I could wish for would be a glass bottle...
