01

Step

Craft the Apricot-Honey Caramel: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Introduce the sugar, stirring continuously until it melts and achieves a light golden-brown hue. Patience is key; avoid burning. (3-5 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Continue stirring to allow the caramelization process to complete, preventing sticking or scorching. (1 minute)

04

Step

Incorporate the pureed apricots and vanilla extract, blending until smooth and fragrant. (1 minute)

05

Step
5 mins

Return the saucepan to low heat. Gently stir in the orange blossom honey. Allow the sauce to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to a velvety consistency. (5 minutes)

Assembly and Chilling: Arrange the meticulously sliced silken tofu on individual dessert plates, creating an elegant presentation.

07

Step
0 mins

Generously drizzle the warm apricot-honey caramel over the tofu slices, ensuring each piece is lovingly coated.

08

Step
1 hrs

Cover the plates with cling film and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably longer, to allow the flavors to meld and the tofu to fully chill. (60 minutes)

09

Step
0 mins

Serve the chilled tofu with a scattering of fresh apricot slices as a refreshing counterpoint to the rich sauce.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the caramel during the caramelization process.
The quality of your honey will significantly impact the final flavor. Opt for a high-quality orange blossom honey for the best results.
Ensure your silken tofu is thoroughly drained and patted dry for optimal texture.
This dessert is best enjoyed within 24 hours of preparation.
