After pouring the loach and tofu into the water, turn the fire to the maximum, and cover the lid when the loach starts to get upset to prevent the loach from jumping out. If you want to make this loach and tofu into a complete dish, tofu and loach are not very particular. The most important thing is the temperature. If the heat is too strong, the loach will be cooked directly. After covering the pot, many people neglected to turn the pot into a small fire immediately to keep the water temperature within the range that the loach can adapt to.
Misgurnus anguillicaudatus will become restless when suddenly stimulated. If there is no cool place, you can only drill into tofu, and the right temperature can prevent it from being cooked immediately. The final product is shown in the figure below. It is a very lucky thing that a successful loach can drill tofu and one or two loaches can get in. This is just a moral. In fact, those chefs with decades of experience can't guarantee 100% success.
And this is the charm of this kind of loach drilling tofu. Of course, this is just foreplay. If you want to eat delicious loach and tofu, you need to continue cooking loach and add various ingredients.
