About Fermented tofu
Fermented tofu, also known as preserved bean curd, is a flavorful condiment originating from Chinese cuisine. Made by fermenting cubes of tofu in brine, rice wine, or a mixture of spices, this product develops a creamy texture and bold, tangy taste. Variations exist across East Asian cuisines, each offering unique flavors based on local ingredients. Fermented tofu is rich in protein, probiotics, and essential amino acids, promoting gut health and aiding digestion. It provides calcium and iron, contributing to bone strength and energy production. However, it can be high in sodium, so moderation is key for individuals watching their salt intake. While often used as a condiment or marinade, it can add depth to soups and stir-fries. Its distinctive taste makes it a staple in Asian cooking and an intriguing addition to global culinary explorations.
