What style is this, Thai, Japanese, Chinese?
I really like Thai, drain, blot dry (it’s never actually dry) dust with rice flour, fry, serve with a Tamarind based sauce. Crispy outside, smooth inside, the Tamarind sauce is acidic and sweet, sometimes a little hot.
Looks great
Cold silken tofu with chili oil is a great treat for hot summer days.
It is, and I love a drizzle of Sesame oil too. Cold buckwheat Soba, Silken Tofu with scallion is one of my hot weather gotos.
This one looks like it is coated to me though.
Afaik this is Chinese
Do you have a recipe for it? I would love to know.
Here you go
I had never seen tofu served like this until last week when I found a Korean recipe that looks like it’s probably similar. I was excited to try it for dinner in a few months when it’s warmer out. Yours looks really good!
Tofu and chili oil is a winning combo. I love to mix soy sauce and minced garlic in too. However, Mapo Tofu is king!
