I believe that most wanderers who have left their homes will never forget their hometown, miss their people, miss their trees, and miss those delicious foods that are not as exquisite as those in big cities.

For people in Dayankeng Village, Jinyun County, the taste of hometown is salty, and it is the smell of sunshine poured out from the old jar by the old people at home. More specifically, dried plums and tofu.

Can prunes still make tofu? When we first heard about this dish, we said it was novel. The guide who took us to the local area to find food patted his chest and said:

"Eat once. Absolutely delicious. People here range from snacks to big ones. "

Although it is already the winter to kill Xiaosuo, Dayankeng Village in the sun still amazes people who come here.

Grandma Chen Tuxiang, who is 83 years old in the village, is going to make this dried plum tofu today, because her daughter is going home with her grandchildren in the afternoon, which is a rare happy event for the old people.

In order to make the most authentic dried plum tofu for his grandchildren, the old man began to get busy.

The selection of tofu is very particular, not brine tofu, not old tofu that has been in the village for more than 20 years. The old man said that the tofu in that shop was made by hand and the water was taken from a sweet well in the village. The taste is different from that bought in the market.

Although old tofu is "old", it is not simple at all.

It is an advanced nutritious food made of soybean protein, which can effectively prevent cardiovascular diseases, protect the heart, prevent excessive fat from being stored in the liver, and effectively prevent fatty liver caused by obesity.

Besides, this tofu can only be bought early. Fortunately, the old man just bought it yesterday and didn't finish it. He soaked it in a crock.

Dried plums are not just dried plums. To make this dish, you need to add some pickles to the dried plums. The dried plums will be dried in the sun and mixed with the compacted and dehydrated pickles, which is quite different from the machine-dried ones.

After preparing the ingredients, the old man began to cook.

Simple and practical tutorial, you can learn it after reading it once!

Grandma said

1. Dried plum tofu should use brine tofu, so the longer the stew, the more fragrant it will be.

2. Adding pickles to dried plums can refresh you.

Dried prunes and tofu can be stewed all the time, and the longer the time, the better the taste.

Don't put lard until the water boils, so it tastes delicious.

Hometown is an indelible motif in human culture, which is not linked with eternal feelings, but with distant thoughts floating in the sky of hometown, which often land on the dining table, take root and sprout in some food, and flourish.
