Shrimp paste tofu is a Shanxi dish.

"Shrimp paste tofu" is a classic dish in Shanxi Jinzhong, Luliang Jiaocheng, and Fenyang. A well-made shrimp paste tofu must be evenly covered with shrimp paste on the surface of each piece of tofu. Whether wrapped in a pot or on a plate, there are a lot of bubbles on the surface of the tofu, similar to crab-eye bubbles. Therefore, shrimp paste tofu is also called "open-eyed tofu" in the local area.
