Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a pot, bring 4 cups soy milk to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it steams and small bubbles form, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Remove from heat and whisk in 1 tsp lactic acid starter until fully dissolved. Let sit undisturbed for 10 minutes until the mixture thickens into a soft pudding.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, rinse 0.5 cup green mung beans and boil in water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  4. Step 4

    Toast 2 slices bread until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Cut into small croutons.

  5. Step 5

    Spoon the warm soy pudding into bowls. Top with the cooked mung beans and toasted bread cubes.

  6. Step 6

    Drizzle 0.5 cup coconut milk over each bowl and sprinkle with 1 tsp salt. Serve immediately.
