Conclusion

We had learned for our last week mistake and our second experiment was success because we had correcting what was wrong. For the week experiment we saw that our tofu is not too soft is quite hard a little bit.What we need to do for the next week task is to less the amount of curdling powder from 3 tsp into 2 tsp.
