Ingredients for making stinky tofu

When making stinky tofu, you need to prepare an appropriate amount of fresh tofu and table salt, as well as pepper powder and chili powder, fresh orange peel and fresh ginger. Finally, prepare a clean large glass bottle and an appropriate amount of white wine.

Steps to make stinky tofu

1. Drain the water and separate the prepared tofu, and dry it in the air, which takes about a day. Then cut the tofu into large pieces and put them into a cardboard box. Cover it with cotton cloth and place it in the sun or near a heater to ferment. After four or five days, it will grow yellow hair.

2. Dip the hairy tofu in white wine, then mix pepper powder, chili powder, salt, diced orange peel and minced ginger together to make a sauce, and stick it on the surface of the tofu.

3. Put the tofu with seasonings into the prepared glass bottle, add the remaining seasonings and white wine, then seal the glass bottle and place it in a warm place to ferment. The homemade stinky tofu will be ready in about a month. When you want to eat it, take it out and put it directly into the oil pan until the surface is golden brown, then you can take it out and eat it.
