Hunan-style Stinky Tofu

Hunan-style Stinky Tofu is a type of fermented tofu that originated in the Hunan province of China. It has a strong and pungent smell that is reminiscent of ammonia, and is usually made by soaking tofu in a brine that contains a variety of spices, herbs, and fermented ingredients. The resulting tofu is soft and creamy on the inside, with a crispy exterior, and is often served with spicy chili sauce or pickled vegetables. This dish is considered an acquired taste, but those who enjoy it describe it as a unique and flavorful experience.
