Thousand-sheet Tofu Skin

Thousand-sheet Tofu Skin

　　Thousand-sheet tofu skin is renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship, paper-thin texture, glossy appearance, and tender yet resilient quality. It is exported to areas such as Pingjiang, Linxiang, Xiushui, Chongyang, and Wuhan. During processing, tofu is first mashed, then scooped into a wooden mold where thin layers are poured, each covered with a piece of cloth. Once the mold is full, it is pressed dry and then peeled apart. The key lies in achieving a tender slurry, working while hot, thoroughly mashing the tofu, and pressing it until dry. Ge Ruiqing and Liu Yuanlai from Maishi Town are skilled artisans in making thousand-sheet tofu skin.
