This dish works well as a side or a savory snack. Any regular firm tofu will do.

However, even firm tofu bought from supermarket may have a different taste or mouthfeel. It depends on the intensity and time of its curdling production. The longer and intenser it’s pressed, the denser and more elastic the tofu becomes. With fewer air bubbles, this tofu can take on a cheese-like consistency.

So tring various kinds of tofu truly brings us lots of inspiring recipes!
