First, tofu is very easy to deteriorate, if the tofu bought back is temporarily not eaten, you can put the tofu in salt water, put the water together in the crisper box and then put it in the refrigerator, change the water every day, you can store it for a week without deterioration.
Second, in the process of making tofu, most of the fiber in soybeans will be lost, but tofu contains 2 to 3 times more iron than cooked meat, and making tofu together with dishes containing vitamin C can help us absorb a lot of iron.
Third, the taste of this dish is very clear, very delicious, although it is just an ordinary piece of tofu, but when it is ready, it can also shine on the table and receive praise from everyone. So, it's almost The New Year, just take it if you like it!
