Stinky Tofu is a famous snack both in China and Taiwan. If you go there and don’t get to try Stinky Tofu, you are not there!
I lived in Taiwan for a year, and I loved having Stinky Tofu as a snack or sometimes, even for a light dinner. The combination of the special marinated tofu, sautéed cabbage, and the spicy sauce give a very unique flavor. It’s the first thing
I used to ask for whenever went back to Taiwan.
However, soon after I learned the secret ingredient to make the traditional stinky tofu was fish or shrimp, and I stopped buying it completely. I tried searching for vendors who make Stinky Tofu without marinating tofu with fish, but there were none. So, I started to experiment my own way. Unfortunately, no matter how much I tried, I can’t make it the same.
I gave up trying to make it to be the same, and started doing it my own way. With just simple ingredients, pan fried instead of deep fried, and the Stinky Tofu vegan style is very healthy and tasty. Are you ready to give it a try?…
