  1. Mix the gypsum powder with water (for tofu) until dissolved.
  2. Blend the silken tofu until smooth, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
  3. Bring the strained tofu mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
  4. Quickly pour the boiling tofu mixture into a serving bowl containing the gypsum solution. Do not stir. Cover and let it set for at least 15-20 minutes.
  5. Combine brown sugar, sliced old ginger, and water (for syrup) in a small pot.
