Instructions

1

Heat milk and pour(8 min)

Grate ginger, squeeze to extract juice (about 2 tbsp). Divide ginger juice between 2 bowls. Heat milk and sugar to 80°C/175°F — just below boiling, when small bubbles form at the edge. Pour milk from a height of about 20cm into the ginger juice. DO NOT STIR. Wait 5 min. The milk will magically set into a silky, wobbly curd.

Pro Tips for Western Kitchens

The pour height and temperature are critical. Too hot or too cold, and it won't set. 80°C is the sweet spot — use a thermometer.
