I just had to change my photo today. Choudoufu: L“¤•…. This is the stinky tofu that they have all over China and Taiwan. It is so good and really I don't think it smells bad at all. I am still trying to find it in other countries but I am disappointed in the fact that most people don't like it because it stinks. Perhaps it comes from the viewpoint of American fast-food, which in my opinion is not really food and really smells bad.
Choudoufu is made by fermenting the tofu in water and then deep frying it, and eatten with kimchi. Soybeans are supposed to be fermented I think it either has something to do with easier digestion or some health thing. Other good fermented soybean products are Japanese nattou (”[“¤), and Indonesian Tempeh. When most of the soybeans come from USA and Canada its sad to see that Canadians and Americans are not adopting better eatting habits.
