Also for milk consumption! "So" to mix earnestly

Rumor has it that "milk" will be left over due to the closure of elementary and junior high schools due to the new coronavirus, so a recipe that allows "mass consumption of milk" has become a hot topic on the Internet. Above all, I actually made "So", which has become a petite boom (?), Even in the eating editorial department.

Su

Su is a type of dairy product that has been made for a long time. There are various theories about how to make it, but it is said to be "milk boiled down and hardened". It takes time to boil for a long time with plenty of milk, so only a limited number of people such as the imperial family and aristocrats could eat it. Originally, it seems that it was eaten as a medicine.

・ Milk 2L

To save time, I used a Teflon-coated frying pan this time.

How to make

1. Pour the milk into a frying pan and heat it over medium heat until the milk boils.


2. When it comes to a boil, change it to low heat and mix it with a rubber spatula. mix! mix!


At first, it's shabby, but gradually, something like a fragile film sticks to the edge of the frying pan. While scraping these, mix them earnestly.


As the water level drops, the color changes to pale yellow. It becomes sticky and thick. After mixing for over an hour, it became as smooth as the panque dough (more water) before baking.


As you continue to mix, traces of rubber spatula will begin to remain. While scraping the film that sticks to the edge of the frying pan, mix it still more!



It turns yellow and feels more fluffy. The whole begins to come together and becomes almost solid. It has evolved from hot cake dough to cookie dough! This is more like "kneading" than "mixing".


When they are all together, remove the heat, wrap them in plastic wrap, and chill them in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. Cut it into your favorite size and you're done!



It took about two and a half to three hours just to mix, so it took about six hours to complete. I boiled it over high heat at first, but there seems to be a recipe that keeps boiling over very low heat from the beginning to the end. In the latter case, it will take more time.

What is the taste of "So"?

The aroma is very close to that of cheese, and when you insert a knife, the aroma increases slightly. First of all, just a bite. The texture is like hard cottage cheese. It is sticky and sticks to your teeth when chewed. The richness of the milk is strong, and the finish has a slight sweetness that spreads softly. Even though it doesn't contain sugar, milk alone makes it so sweet.


Lightly seasoned to eat as it is. To put it better, it has a gentle taste, and to put it worse, it has a blurred impression. You may have different tastes.

The staff of the eating editorial department who ate plain soup also

Staff A: The more you chew, the sweeter it feels and the more delicious it is.
Staff B: I like the chewy texture
Staff C: When asked if I want to eat again ..., hmm
Staff D: A delicate line that is hard to say good or bad

The opinion was divided. Because it is light in taste, it may feel unsatisfactory if you are accustomed to modern seasoning.

So, I decided to add seasonings and compare them. I used 3 kinds of "honey", "black pepper" and "salt". As a result, salt was the most popular! When sprinkled with a large amount of salt and eaten, the gentle sweetness and saltiness combined, and the taste changed to a rich cheese-like taste. Looks good as a liquor knob!


"Su" can be made by continuing to mix. Although it takes time, the work itself is easy, so it seems that it can be used for children's independent studies. Why not give it a try when you have time?
