Fried Stinky Tofu is a popular street food originating from China and Taiwan, renowned for its pungent aroma and bold flavor. Made by fermenting tofu in a brine of vegetables, herbs, and sometimes seafood, the tofu develops a distinct taste and scent. After fermentation, it's deep-fried to create a crispy exterior while maintaining a soft, porous interior. Typically served with chili sauce, pickled vegetables, or soy-based condiments, it’s a savory treat enjoyed across many Asian cuisines. Nutritionally, tofu is a rich source of plant-based protein, calcium, and iron, making it valuable for bone health and muscle maintenance. However, the frying process adds calories and saturated fats, which may counteract its benefits if consumed excessively. The fermentation process also introduces probiotics, aiding digestion, but it’s high in sodium due to seasoning, which should be considered in a balanced diet. Fried Stinky Tofu offers a unique combination of taste, texture, and tradition.
