Directions

30 min
  1. 1

    Wrap 30g of peeled pumpkin in plastic wrap and microwave until softened.

  2. 2

    Remove the pumpkin skin if any remains and mash it thoroughly with a fork.

  3. 3

    Mix 50g shiratama flour with the mashed pumpkin, then gradually add 20g silken tofu while kneading until the dough reaches an earlobe-soft consistency (reduce tofu amount if the pumpkin releases too much moisture).

  4. 4

    In a separate bowl, combine 200g shiratama flour and 200g silken tofu, then knead well to form the dough.

  5. 5

    Divide each dough into portions and shape into dumplings with your hands.

  6. 6

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the dumplings, and cook. Once they float to the surface, cook for another 2 minutes, then transfer to ice water.

  7. 7

    Once cooled, drain thoroughly in a colander and arrange on a plate to serve.

Tips

Maintain a 1:1 ratio of shiratama flour to tofu (including pumpkin) as a guide. Adjust the tofu amount based on the pumpkin's moisture content for best results.
