Deep-fried "stinky tofu" smells stinky and eats exotic fragrance, which is a must for Chinese snacks. "Stinky tofu" can be seen everywhere, but the fried "Stinky tofu" in Changsha Fire Palace in Hunan Province is more famous. It is said that in the 1950s, celebrities went to Hunan to collect folk information, and once went to the local "Fire Palace" famous for its "stinky tofu". The stinky tofu here is fried with slow fire, then the tofu pieces are drilled out and poured with Chili oil. It tastes spicy and smelly, which is very appreciated. Therefore, the reputation of "Fire Palace" stinky tofu spread all over Hunan and the north and south of the country.

First, make soybean into tofu slices (white tofu), then brew brine, cook with black fermented soybean, cool, add seasonings such as mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots and white wine, and soak for 15 minutes. Deep-fried, fried on the surface, white and tender inside. Pour Chili sauce to eat.

2. Made of stinky tofu

Raw materials and formula:

5 kg of soybean, 250 g of chili oil, 0/kg of tea oil/kloc-,0/50g of sesame oil/kloc-,500g of soy sauce, 0/5kg of brine/kloc-,0/00g of crude salt/kloc-and 300g of plaster of Paris.

Production technology:

(1) Tofu is made by soaking soybeans in water, washing them with clean water, adding 20-25 kilograms of clean water, grinding them into a thin paste with a stone mill, adding warm water with the amount of thin paste, mixing them evenly, putting them into a cloth bag, extruding the slurry, mixing them with boiled water in the bean dregs, and then squeezing. When the bean dregs do not touch hands continuously and the soybean milk has been squeezed out, skim off the foam and put the slurry into the pot. If the dripping water is not mixed with the pulp, it will turn into tofu brain in about 20 minutes. Scoop the bean curd into a wooden box, cover it with wooden boards, press on heavy stones, and press off the water, and it becomes bean curd.

(2) Stir-fry the stinky tofu. Put the soapy alum into a bucket, pour boiling water and stir with a stick, soak it in the tofu for about 2 hours, take out the tofu and let it cool. Then soak the tofu in salt water for about 3-5 hours in spring and autumn, 2 hours in summer and 6- 10 hour in winter. Take it out after soaking, wash it with cold boiling water, drain the water, and then pour all the tea oil into the pot to burn red. Add tofu and fry for about 5 minutes. Once brown, take it out and put it on a plate, and drill it in the middle of tofu with chopsticks.

(3) The preparation method of brine is based on 2.5kg douchi, which needs to be boiled with 15kg clear water, filtered, soaked with 1500g alkali in juice for about half a month, stirred 1 time every day, and fermented to obtain brine.

Product characteristics

The color is brownish yellow, the outside is tender and tender, and the fragrance is overflowing.

3. Made of stinky tofu

Raw materials:

Tofu, 15cm× 15cm wet cotton cloth (preferably white), some straw and a carton.

Making:

1. Cut the bought tofu into small pieces of 6cm×6cm×2cm, put each piece obliquely in the middle and wrap it tightly with a wet cloth (no need to tie it).

2. Remove the leaves and ears from the rice straw, leaving only the rice straw, wash it, cut it into 20 cm long sections, wash it and dry it for later use.

3. Stack the cloth-wrapped tofu neatly on the board (you can put it on the chopping block), with at most three or four layers overlapping, with the bottom area as large as possible, and then press it on another board or slate. At this time, put the water in a big pot on the upper board or slate (it is also a good choice to replace it with a boulder). Anyway, a word, the pressure on it is "heavy"! ), so let it stand for 24 hours. This process is to squeeze out all the water in the tofu by gravity to make it more compact. Because there will be water oozing out during the whole process, it is best to put it in the pool to do this work. Of course, your swimming pool will not be used on this day. I made it in a square basin, so that the floor wouldn't get dirty because of water seeping out.

Check these tofu after one day, and you will find that they are packed tightly and neatly. Ok, now you can find out the carton, lay a layer of rice straw with a thickness of 1cm on the bottom, then put the tofu wrapped in cloth on it layer by layer, and then lay a thick layer of rice straw on it after you finish. Then put it in a damp and cool place and check it once a day. Generally, you can smell the attractive fragrance of stinky tofu in about 3 days. Check for long hair or brush surface. If there is, it is ready. Remember, the standard is the smell of stinky tofu and the long brush surface.

4. Stinky tofu in Nanjing

Now there are stinky tofu in Nanjing, Shaoxing, Hubei, Anhui, Tianjin, Yunnan and other places, and the taste and practice vary with local eating habits. In addition to frying, there are steamed stinky tofu in Huangshan, duck oil stinky tofu in Yunnan, roasted stinky tofu and so on.

There are two kinds of stinky tofu in Nanjing, one is gray tender tofu, and the other is tile gray dried tofu. When the tender stinky tofu is fried to golden brown in the oil pan, it can be taken out of the pan. When eating, it is sprinkled with some Chili sauce, sesame sauce, garlic juice, coriander, shallots and Jiang Mo. It tastes crisp outside and tender inside, and it tastes delicious. Qianzi is a kind of gray stinky tofu, which needs to be fried in oil for a long time before it can be thoroughly fried. With the attractive fragrance spreading, small bubbles will appear on the surface of dried tofu, and when the color turns gray-black, it can be eaten. In qianzi, this stinky tofu is usually cut into small pieces and strung on bamboo sticks. After frying, it is directly brushed with the sauce prepared by the stall owner and eaten while it is hot. Crispy and delicious, quite chewy.

Nanjing Gaochun's stinky tofu is also somewhat different in practice. First, use good soybeans to make water tofu, and then press white water tofu into white dried tofu; Then add the dried bean curd to the salt water. The brine here is the most exquisite, and it needs to be made from the rotten kimchi juice left over from the second year. It is pure green and natural, does not contain any pigment, and emits a natural smell. Seal the jar when it is in full bloom, bury it in the ground and take it out in a few days. The white tofu has dried up. When you open the dried bean curd, you can see that it is blue and black from the inside out, and it smells strange, but after frying, the entrance is very fragrant.

Production of stinky tofu in Beijing

Stinky tofu is made from high-quality and high-protein soybeans by soaking beans, grinding, filtering, pickling, pre-fermentation, pickling, soup filling and post-fermentation.

(1) Tofu is made by soaking soybeans in water, washing them with clean water, adding 20-25 kilograms of clean water, grinding them into a thin paste with a stone mill, adding warm water with the amount of thin paste, mixing them evenly, putting them into a cloth bag, extruding the slurry, mixing them with boiled water in the bean dregs, and then squeezing. When the bean dregs do not touch hands continuously and the soybean milk has been squeezed out, skim off the foam and put the slurry into the pot. If the dripping water is not mixed with the pulp, it will turn into tofu brain in about 20 minutes. Scoop the bean curd into a wooden box, cover it with wooden boards, press on heavy stones, and press off the water, and it becomes bean curd. To make stinky tofu, if tofu is special, it will be harder than tofu we usually eat, but softer than dried tofu.

(2) Fermentation: Put the prepared tofu on the shelf piece by piece. A wooden shelf can hold more than a dozen layers of tofu, and the middle can be ventilated, coated with salt, sprinkled with mold (the bacteria are dissolved in water and the fingers are stained on the tofu), and placed in a ventilated room without direct sunlight for two to three days. In summer, the temperature in the house can be around 32 degrees, and tofu will grow an inch long white hair, which is mold.

(3) Treatment after fermentation: put the soapstone into a barrel, pour boiling water and stir with a stick, soak it in tofu for about 2 hours, then take out the tofu and cool it. Then soak tofu in brine for about 3-5 hours in spring and autumn, 2 hours in summer and 6- 10 hour in winter. Take it out after soaking, wash it with cold water and drain it. (preparation method of bittern: based on 2.5kg douchi, it is necessary to add 15kg water to boil, filter, add 1500g alkali to the juice, soak for about half a month, stir 1 time every day, and obtain bittern after fermentation. )

(4) according to the taste and characteristics of different regions, and then processing.
