Silken Tofu Pudding with Peanuts

Gratitude for the grace of heaven and for the virtues of Maitreya, Shi Zun, and Shi Mu, as well as the kindness of both Grandmasters at the Tao Field Headquarters for creating this diverse, international platform and giving me the chance to contribute. When I am making a peanut tofu pudding dessert, I feel that the ingredients are simple and the directions are easy to follow. This reminded me of Grandmaster Wang’s sharing about how our divine, intrinsic nature is the most primitive, natural, and simple, which is also the most blissful, joyful, and happy.

When I presented the finished product, the bright milky white colour and the soft chewiness of the tofu made the taste buds of my family and friends very happy. They shared that they really enjoyed the dessert, and this moment highlighted the fact that we share such a natural and simple life of happiness. 

I amgrateful for the creations of great love and beauty from the Divine Mother, conveying these graces through ingredients so that when everyone tastes these delicacies, we return to the most blissful, happiest, and joyful aesthetic of the life of food appreciation.
