November 2012 Hodo Soy Beanery Tour

Beanery ? Yes, it's a real word - and a real place. The Beanery is where Hodo artisans produce our soymilk, tofu, and yuba - as well as all of our ready-to-eat dishes. Like a bakery and its bread or a charcuterie and its meats, The Beanery is dedicated to Hodo's expertise – soybeans.   Hodo opened the new Beanery in West Oakland in 2009. Our building was originally built in the 1920s as a candy factory and then became a bakery. Good mojo for Hodo, we believe. Between 2008 and 2009, we renovated… Show more the space to suit the particular needs of tofu making. To design and fabricate our equipment, we worked with one of the oldest remaining tofu equipment producers in Asia. We are particularly proud of the visitors’ room, where we welcome the public to view our production and sample many of Hodo's creations, fresh from Beanery. Tours are offered twice a month during production hours.
