Homemade black bean tofu

Overview

Speaking of making tofu, I have been very good at it since I was a child. At that time, I grew my own beans and had a stone mill at home. I ground the pulp with my friends and then I made the tofu. Frying the tofu was my parents' business. The tender and delicious tofu has never been surpassed now. I have forgotten how to make tofu when I was a kid. Now I use a juicer to grind soy milk; I also buy salt brine for making tofu but I have never used it. I like to use vinegar. I saw gray tofu like this in the vegetable market. I made it myself and realized that it was actually made from black beans. The tofu you make yourself is plentiful and tastes better than the ones you buy~
