Tofu Pie

“My grandma used to make this for us all the time when we were little, and we loved it. I grew up thinking it was a local thing, but as I got older, I realized that no one knew what it was so I made this dish to bring more attention to it. I like that it’s light and fluffy, almost Japanese cheesecake-like, and it is very easy to elevate this recipe with flavors like calamansi or lilikoi.” - Chef Zoe Shinjo, Sous Chef

Ingredients  

  • 1 Premade Graham Crust
  • 3 ounces Lime Jell-O
  • 1 cup Water, boiling
  • 6 ounces Mori-Nu Soft Silken Tofu
  • 8 ounces Cool Whip
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

Instructions 

  1. Unwrap pie shell; set aside.
  2. Pour Jell-O powder into a small mixing bowl. Carefully pour boiling water over powder and whisk until powder is dissolved. Place Jell-O in refrigerator until cool and slightly set.
  3. Once Jell-O is slightly set, combine Jell-O, tofu, half container of Cool Whip and lime juice in a blender pitcher. Using blender, puree together until smooth.
  4. Pour blended mixture into pie shell using a spatula to level the top. Refrigerate overnight or until completely set.
  5. Spread remaining half of Cool Whip over the top of the pie.

Note:

  • Silken tofu can be found in the non-refrigerated Asian aisle of the store
  • Turn pie into calamansi flavor by using calamansi juice in place of lime juice
