FRIED BEAN CURD (TOFU) WITH SOY SAUCE BY SY



Fried Bean Curd (Tofu) With Soy Sauce by Sy image

This recipe is the one to try if you are new to eating Bean Curd or have not liked the texture of Bean Curd in the past. Bean Curd (the Japanese name is Tofu) is simply ground up soy beans, water and a coagulant added, put in a mold and then some of the water is pressed out. There are several types of Bean Curd from the Japanese, Chinese and Korean cuisines; Silken (soft), Medium/Regular (semi-soft) and Firm (hard) Tofu. Further, it is high in protein, inexpensive to make and blends in very well with other foods.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ingredients: Use high-quality dried shrimp and bean curd. The dried shrimp should be plump and have a reddish-brown color. The bean curd should be firm and not too soft.
  • Soak the dried shrimp: This will help to rehydrate them and make them more flavorful.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or wok: This will help to prevent the oil from splattering and will also help to evenly cook the bean curd.
  • Heat the oil to the correct temperature: The oil should be hot enough to fry the bean curd, but not so hot that it smokes. You can test the temperature of the oil by dropping a small piece of bean curd into it. If it sizzles and floats to the top, the oil is hot enough.
  • Fry the bean curd in batches: This will help to prevent the bean curd from sticking together and will also help to ensure that it is evenly cooked.
  • Drain the bean curd on paper towels: This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the bean curd immediately: This is when it is at its best. You can serve it with the dried shrimp sauce, or with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Deep-fried bean curd with dried shrimp sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover bean curd, and it is also a great source of protein. The dried shrimp sauce is flavorful and tangy, and it perfectly complements the crispy bean curd. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy bean curd, then this dish is definitely worth trying.
