Stinky Tofu Skin

　　Stinky Tofu Skin — The “stinky tofu skin” from Tianjiaba in Zhushan is a famous and beloved dish far and wide. Legend has it that during the late Qing and early Republican period, Tianjiaba, known as the “Little Shanghai” of the time, was bustling with merchants and thriving in business. Among the many merchants, those from Guizhou were the most numerous, as they had a particular fondness for spicy and pungent-flavored dishes. As a result, they specially brought chefs from their hometown in Guizhou to prepare stinky tofu skin for them. Since then, stinky tofu has been passed down and spread throughout Zhushan.
