Boiled tofu in white water is a dish that remembers bitterness and sweetness. Listening to grandma's white water boiled tofu at that time, they used a pot of water to boil tofu. There is no oily fish in the pot. That is the real boiled tofu in white water. The original flavor, the cooked tofu is eaten directly with minced garlic. Unlike the current white water, ham and shiitake mushrooms are added, and the dipping sauce needs to be extremely fresh. Tofu is rich in nutrients, contains iron, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and other trace elements necessary for the human body. It also contains sugar, vegetable oil and rich high-quality protein. Its digestion and absorption rate is more than 95%. Two small pieces of tofu can meet a person's daily calcium requirement. Tofu is an ideal food for the elderly and pregnant women, as well as an important food for the growth and development of children. Tofu is mainly processed from soybeans, which contain more protein and fat, so tofu has a higher nutritional value. Tofu can be produced all year round, regardless of seasons, so in the off-season of vegetable production, you can adjust the variety of dishes.
