The FAR AND WIDE KNOWN stinky tofu tastes so delicious that you won’t even miss the taste of meat for three days after tasting the stinky tofu
Although the name of “stinky tofu" is not so popular, but it tastes delicious and unique despite of its ordinary and unfavorable appearance. The stinky tofu has a long history and is a local snack of unique features. It is a kind of old and traditional food. Once you taste it, you can hardly resist it anymore and always want to have some for the enjoyment. The classical slogan that the stinky tofu “smells stinky while tastes savory” is widely known to us all. In the streets and lanes of south Yangtze River region, everyday people can see the following scene going on: a burden, a small oven and boiler with oil, a wooden chopping board, and the oil is boiling and on the board is the bottle of flavoring and bamboo prods. An old man would take out a piece of stinky tofu and put it into the oil pot. With the sound of “cheep” of frying, the stinky tofu would gradually turn golden and appetizing and the savory while also stinky smell would fill the air. Seeing that the pieces of fried stinky tofu are placed on the iron-wire holder dropping oil into the pot, the kids would stare at them and even pop out their eyeballs. The old man would use a small bamboo stick to string some pieces together and smear some red peppery catsup. And then a kid is too impatient to wait any longer and grab the string of stinky tofu. He bites it so quickly that the hot tofu even burns his mouth, but still he looks so happy. A string of stinky tofu would always remind you of your memory, a place, emotions, feelings, mood and a lot of things.
