Stinky Tofu



Thursday 11 February 2010

Be sooooo glad that this post doesn't come with smell-o-vision.

This is stinky tofu, a kind of fermented bean curd that smells rather like old gym socks, or a pig pen. You can smell a chou doufu stand for blocks around, and it absolutely reeks.

Luckily, it doesn't taste quite as bad as it smells. I'm not saying I ever need to eat it again, but if served it, I could eat it in order to be polite. This particular plate was pretty weak, as well.
