Fate is a turbulent one
Fate is twisted and bizarre
Even if fate intimidates you as a person, it is not interesting
Don't shed tears, heartache, and don't give up
I wish I could spend my life with you forever

Li Keqin's "Red Sun"
I thought
If he was in Puning
Who will be with you?
It must be
Puning dried tofu!
There is also Li Keqin's big brother, that is called tofu, not tofu!
In Chaoshan and Puning, what is the first food you can think of? Dried tofu! Puning dried tofu! Xiaobian is a child who grew up in Puning, and never knew that a small square dried tofu was so famous! Xiaobian will tell you what puning dried tofu tastes like today, why it is so delicious, why it is so famous!
This dried tofu is one of Puning's specialties, and this small dried tofu is also quite complicated to make, more than a dozen processes, but the amount of output at a time is still quite large. There are also quite a lot of ways to eat, Xiaobian will now introduce you to one of the most authentic and popular ways to eat, that is, fried dried beans!
If you want the dried tofu to taste delicious, you must first choose the soft and tough outer skin and the tender and smooth inner meat, so that the dried tofu tastes good. A piece of fried dried tofu is crispy and tender, but it doesn't really have a salty taste, so it must be accompanied by a special sauce to taste good. The so-called special sauce is sprinkled with salt onions and then added hot water, which is the sauce that must be accompanied by fried dried beans! Dipping sauce, inlet, crispy
The fried dried tofu is tender on the outside and tender on the inside, the aroma is overflowing, the dipping sauce, the entrance, the outer layer is crisp and delicious, the inner meat is tender and smooth, the onion aroma of the sauce wraps around the whole dried tofu, and the brine makes the dried tofu more flavorful. It is worth noting that the selection of ingredients is also important! Although this practice is simple. If the sauce wants to be delicious and has a stronger onion flavor, it is necessary to choose those scallions that are smaller and thinner, otherwise those large chives have no smell of onion, which affects the taste of fried dried beans. And salt should pay attention to the right amount, otherwise it will not only affect the taste, but also cover up the aroma of dried tofu. Salty crisp, crispy, refreshing, smooth so much taste that people want to eat again, dried tofu can have such a taste because in the production of more full particles, bright color of soybeans as raw materials, and the soaking time of soybeans should be timely, otherwise it will affect the taste, will lead to dried beans sour is not delicious, there is also to pay attention to the frying when the pan to be hot to get off the pot, otherwise the dried beans will not be crisp enough!
Fried dried tofu is really the most characteristic and authentic dish in puning area. Of course, there is more than one way to eat dried tofu! Xiaobian will introduce you to another very common and delicious dried tofu method, that is, the Chaoshan dialect called "leek pressed dried tofu". However, sometimes it is not necessary to use leeks, oh, we can find other seasonal vegetables to replace.
At this time, the dried tofu does not have the crispy and crispy fried, more soft and strong, tough, salty and appropriate, and also has the leek aroma of leeks. To make the dried tofu taste good, when frying the dried tofu, you can first sprinkle a little salt grain to make the light and tasteless dried tofu have a little salty taste, fry until golden brown and then serve. Dried tofu has a salty taste and leek flavor must be fried in the fried leeks until it is cooked at four minutes, pour the fried dried beans into it, and then add salty water and simmer in the pot for two or three minutes, so that in the process of heating, the salty and leek aroma will be full of seepage into it.
Compared with celery stir-fried dried incense, although the practice of dried beans is very much: cold mixing, hot frying, frying, roasting, etc., the taste is not dried beans, the dry and hard with toughness, the chewing feeling is more intense, and the dried beans are soft and flexible, the entrance is melted, this dried beans should not be simmered in the pot for too long, otherwise the bean flavor is gone, the outer layer of the dried beans has also lost its toughness, the inner meat is also mushy, and the leeks are also rotten, so pay attention to the time.
In fact, not all seasonal vegetables can be matched with dried beans, dried beans are available every day, and vegetables still depend on the season, so there is one thing: chives! It can replace vegetables that are not available in the season, and it is similar to fried dried beans! I heard that dried tofu and chives are more compatible! It tastes even better!
Fried dried beans, leeks pressed dried beans... I don't know if this Puning dried tofu has attracted you! If you come to Puning, you really must try it! Otherwise, how can you know why Puning dried tofu is so famous!
