Canada's First Sea Salt In 2010 we set out to put Canada on the world map for sea salt. Why? It occured to us that, despite having one of the longest and most pristine shorelines in the world, our amazing country did not produce sea salt. We changed that. Now you can enjoy a world-class sea salt made with true Canadian values - purity, honesty, and sustainability. Canada's First Sea Salt In 2010 we set out to put Canada on the world map for sea salt.

The Purist Source The idyllic shores of Vancouver Island create the perfect “merroir” for crafting a world class sea salt. Located on a stunning 400 acre farm with over 2 km of untouched ocean frontage on Oyster Bay, we draw from some of the fastest moving ocean currents in the world. Nearby rivers are glacier fed, bringing a unique blend of minerals to our salt while keeping our water source clean and unspoiled.

Sustainability Focused In 2022 we achieved full circular economy status. Every drop of seawater entering our saltworks leaves as something of value. Mineral brine goes to local Vancouver Island artisans. Recovered fresh water flows into nearby agriculture. Nothing wasted. Nothing discarded. Not a pledge. Not an offset. A closed loop, running every day on the shores of the Canadian Pacific. Sustainability Focused In 2022 we achieved full circular economy status.

Hand-harvested and Packaged Review: Good Tofu Coagulant magic - This works great for me. You have to mix the Nigari with soy bean in right way. And it really works. Review: Makes perfect tofu every time!! - Great product that makes it super easy to make lovely tofu!! Works every time. I make 8 cups fresh soy milk, heat it to 78 degrees Celsius, gently stir in 2 tsp., cover, and wait for 15 mins. Perfect every time. PLEASE NOTE, do some research before leaving a negative review because you tried to use store bought soy milk. Nothing will work for you if you’re using commercial soy milk that contains anything other than soy beans and water, and maybe a little salt. ## Features - The 'True North' of tofu coagulants - It's well known that liquid nigari (magnesium chloride brine) makes tofu with superior flavor and texture. It's the reason why, in Japan, tofu made with nigari is priced at a significant premium to tofu made with other coagulants. Nigari tofu is also healthier because it adds magnesium, an essential mineral for the body that most people are lacking. - Made with love in Canada - Our nigari is crafted in small batches on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada. It's 100% sustainable because it's a natural consequence of the harvesting of our award-winning gourmet flake sea salt (also available on desertcart and as a cost-saving bundle with the nigari). - 100% natural - Unlike nigari crystals or gypsum coagulants that are made using chemicals, our liquid nigari is produced naturally, with a seven-step filtration process ensuring we start with the purest seawater possible before boiling at high temperatures. - Bang for your buck - Highly concentrated, each bottle contains enough coagulant for approximately 25 gallons of soy milk (depending on recipe). - It's not just about tofu - There are plenty of other culinary uses for nigari. Use it instead of lemon to coagulate soft cheeses like ricotta and paneer, and for enhacing the fermentation of sauerkraut, kimchi or sourdough bread. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07JD8KXLY | | Best Sellers Rank | #71,092 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #1,179 in Magnesium Mineral Supplements | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (489) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Manufacturer | Vancouver Island Salt Co | | Product Dimensions | 2.36 x 2.36 x 5.12 inches; 8 ounces | | UPC | 818710000506 | | Units | 8 Fluid Ounces | ## Images ![Nigari - 8ozm Liquid Tofu Coagulant - Japanese Style All Natural - Made in Canada - Magnesium Chloride for Homemade Tofu & Cheese Making - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EbZJEBB0L.jpg) ![Nigari - 8ozm Liquid Tofu Coagulant - Japanese Style All Natural - Made in Canada - Magnesium Chloride for Homemade Tofu & Cheese Making - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/711SVsjBLEL.jpg) ![Nigari - 8ozm Liquid Tofu Coagulant - Japanese Style All Natural - Made in Canada - Magnesium Chloride for Homemade Tofu & Cheese Making - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71sLfMwqHvL.jpg) ![Nigari - 8ozm Liquid Tofu Coagulant - Japanese Style All Natural - Made in Canada - Magnesium Chloride for Homemade Tofu & Cheese Making - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71E8myrddJL.jpg) ![Nigari - 8ozm Liquid Tofu Coagulant - Japanese Style All Natural - Made in Canada - Magnesium Chloride for Homemade Tofu & Cheese Making - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61OTAST-t7L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this product require refrigeration after opening? Thanks.** A: This is a shelf stable product that does not require refrigeration after opening. We recommend storing it out of direct sunlight at room temperature. **Q: From what country does the seawater come?** A: The seawater is sourced right here on beautiful Vancouver Island where our sea salt harvestry is located. We have a two kilometer stretch of private oceanfront from which we draw the water at high tide. The water is then filtered and boiled at high temperatures to ensure purity. **Q: how many gram Nigari to mix with soymilk for tofu pudding?** A: For silken tofu we have this great recipe from a customer who shared with us: "I recently created a very successful silk tofu pudding using your nigari. The recipe is very simple and I was hoping to share it with you. Ingredients: 2 cups of soy milk (unsweetened) 1 teaspoon of nigari Equipment: steamer 2 bowls Directions: Mix the nigari and the soy milk together. Pour it into a container that can be put into the steamer. I divided the entire mixture into two bowls. Cover the bowls with aluminum foil. This is to prevent the condensation from forming bumpy surfaces on the tofu pudding. Steam it on low heat for about 9 minutes. Stove temperatures may vary. I used an electric stove (with a max setting of 2000 and a min setting of 200), and used heat setting 600. Add sugar to taste. The traditional sugar to use with tofu pudding is red powdered sugar. But any sugar would do. I made a sugar syrup with muscovado sugar instead of adding granulated or powdered sugar. Note: I used store bought soy milk which was unsweetened. I bought the kind that had to be refrigerated." **Q: Do you need to dilute this in water to make tofu?** A: Hi! It is not necessary to dilute liquid nigari with water but a couple of recipes that have given our customers great results do recommend it. Check out the 'Killer Tofu Recipe' online by Andrea Nguyen. Our understanding is that the amount and concentration you use also depends on your desired firmness. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Tofu Coagulant magic *by J***Y on February 5, 2026* This works great for me.

It saves a step and is always perfect. Homemade tofu is such a treat. It is a totally different product from commercial tofu, it’s worth making it, once you try homemade you will understand. I swear by this product because the powder stuff is kind of a hassle. This lasts for a long time. One bottle every two years for my home. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nigari - 8oz of Liquid Nigari Tofu Coagulant - All Natural - Made in Canada - Magnesium Chloride Brine/Bittern for Making Better Tasting and Healthier Tofu - Soymerica Non-GMO Soybeans - 7 Lbs.
