what exactly is yuba, and whee can you buy it?
You know how a skin forms on scalded milk? Well, at root yuba is the same but for soymilk. It will form on any warm soymilk, ideally freshly made. I don't know if it will work with reheated commercial soymilk, but if so I'd use plain soybean-and-water soymilk with no additives, or I expect the carrageenan will make it come out mushy. You can buy yuba frozen or dried. I'd try Chinatown, a health food store, or a provider like Weee! who can ship the dried, at least, to you if it's not local.
