Minced Pork Frozen Tofu

Minced Pork Frozen Tofu

Overview

Frozen tofu originated in the north. It is freezing in the north in winter. Local people like to put the tofu outside the window and wait for the tofu to freeze naturally before eating it. After freezing and thawing, the tofu has a honeycomb shape and good elasticity, just like a sponge. It is especially easy to absorb soup when cooking. It tastes particularly layered, with both soup and chewy texture.
