This snack is loaded with thick childhood memories, and there are very few things to eat when I was young. I remember when I was in elementary school, my friends were very happy every day during the Spring Outing and Autumn Outing, because I had an excuse to buy more delicious food. At that time, the basic equipment was 1.5 yuan for 4 large packages, with two fruits, one ham sausage, two hard-boiled eggs or tea eggs, and a bottle of orange soda on the back. Then the parents will give 5 yuan or 10 yuan of pocket money.

And in this money, there must be two yuan for buying dried tofu in marinade, 2 yuan for four boxes, each box of dried tofu is finely chopped, and two toothpicks are attached, and you can pierce it while walking. While eating, chatting and laughing with classmates. Such a day is so happy!

Dear friends, are you the same?

If this snack is a special product, it’s hard to say. Xianheng’s is from Hangzhou and Jinjindang is from Suzhou. Of course, there are other provinces and cities that produce it, and they all have their own characteristics. Now this dish of dried tofu has evolved into LG’s snacks since childhood.

When Xiao Man was cooking this dish, she not only asked the old lady in the neighborhood, but also the proprietress of the tofu products in the vegetable market. She also looked for the recipe and related information. If you ask me if I am authentic, I am sorry, because I don't know where it is made authentic, but what I make is delicious. "
