At night, I was alone and didn't know what to eat. I didn't want to eat takeaway and I was too lazy. There was a box of brined tofu and a cabbage in the refrigerator, so I combined and made a double-cooked tofu stew. It was not bad.
Growing up in the water town, I prefer to eat soft tofu. This brine tofu is recommended by the shopping guide of the supermarket. Well, my problem is that I will not refuse.
The following is from Baidu Encyclopedia: Bittern, commonly known as brine and tampa, is a by-product of the production of sea salt. Bittern is also called bittern and brine alkali. It is the mother liquor remaining in the salt pond after salt is made from sea water or salt lake water. The main ingredients are magnesium chloride and calcium sulfate. , Calcium chloride and sodium chloride, etc., taste bitter and toxic. After evaporation and cooling, magnesium chloride crystals are precipitated, which is called halogen block. Brine is dissolved in water and called brine. It is a commonly used coagulant in the production of tofu in our country, which can condense the protein solution into a gel. Tofu made with bittern as a coagulant has strong hardness, elasticity and toughness, and is called old tofu, or northern tofu or hard tofu.
Because I don’t like the texture of old tofu, I cut it into pieces and fry it, then cooked it again. It mimics the taste of cooked pork and seasoned it with bean paste. I didn’t expect the tofu to be good. It was tender on the outside and absorbed. The smell of sauce and sausage, the cabbage is also very delicious, a good try^_^"
