Ingredients

1 lb silken tofu firm or extra-firm, drained and patted dry
3 tbsp white miso paste for a mild, savory-sweet flavor
2 tbsp maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan option
1 tbsp fresh ginger grated finely
1 tsp vanilla extract pure for best flavor
1 cup unsweetened soy milk or almond milk for a lighter version
2 tbsp cornstarch to help thicken the pudding
1 pinch salt optional, to balance flavors

Notes

Storage: Cover and refrigerate the pudding for up to 4 days. It may thicken slightly but remains creamy. Make-Ahead: Prepare the pudding up to 2 days in advance; it's perfect for meal prep. Substitutions: Use coconut milk for a richer flavor, or replace maple syrup with honey (not vegan). For a gluten-free version, ensure the miso paste is gluten-free. Serving Suggestions: Serve chilled as a dessert or a light snack. Pair with fresh berries or a dusting of matcha powder for extra flavor.
