Black Rice Taho Parfait
Ingredients
- 1 cup Agriko black rice
- 2.5 cups water
- 1 pack (350g) silken tofu, lightly pressed
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup water (for syrup)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh mango, diced
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tbsp toasted coconut flakes (optional garnish)
Instructions
-
Rinse Agriko black rice thoroughly under cold running water until the water runs clear, removing excess starch.
-
In a pot, combine rinsed black rice with 2.5 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Let cool slightly.
-
While rice cooks, prepare the brown sugar syrup by combining brown sugar and ¼ cup water in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until syrupy, then remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Allow to cool completely.
-
In a blender, combine silken tofu with 3 tablespoons of cooled brown sugar syrup until smooth and creamy. Divide evenly among four clear glasses.
-
Layer the cooled black rice on top of the tofu cream in each glass, filling halfway.
-
Top with fresh mango pieces and blueberries, then drizzle remaining brown sugar syrup over each parfait. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes if desired.
-
Serve immediately at room temperature or chilled for a refreshing morning treat.
Cook the black rice a day ahead and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for quicker assembly during busy mornings. The cooked rice keeps fresh for up to 4 days.
