Stuffed tofu, hence the name suggests, means stuffing is added. Speaking of Yongtofu, most people in my hometown like to eat it. Yongtofu is a kind of tofu that has been deep-fried and has a brown exterior and a hollow inside. It has a soft skin and good toughness. Yong Tau Fu is a Hakka dish in my hometown. Many families have made yong tofu. The method of preparation is similar. The tofu used, the fillings and the method of preparation are obviously different. The fillings are mainly pork, chives, mushrooms, deep-fried or pan-fried. The stuffing in my hometown’s Yongtofu is made with glutinous rice flour, peanuts, red dates, meat, and sugar. Sometimes, depending on the season, Ci mushrooms are added, steamed first and then braised in brown sauce. According to the tradition of my hometown, every family will have their own brewed yong tofu during the New Year, and yong tofu can also be a dish served in ten bowls in spring. This Yongtofu is an improved version. It uses minced meat and vermicelli. It is suitable for those who don’t like glutinous rice. "
