If every city has its unique taste, the one defining #Changsha, capital of central #China's #Hunan Province, should be its "fragrant" #stinkytofu.
#Soybeans undergo various processes such as sifting, soaking, grinding, filtering, boiling, and fermentation. They become raw bean curd, soaked in brine, emitting a pungent smell that makes people frown and cover their noses.
However, to experienced stinky tofu chefs, those black tofu cubes with a funky odor possess unique qualities. By examining the color, shape, scent, and texture, they select the best bean curds and deep-fry them with oil. A bowl of crispy stinky tofu is thus made.
