Qianjiang Rice Tofu

Qianjiang Rice Tofu

　　This dish is smooth, tender, tangy, and spicy. It is made by washing and soaking rice, grinding it with water into a rice slurry, then boiling it with alkali, cooling it to form a block-like “tofu.” Before eating, it is cut into small slices, soaked in cold water, drained, and placed in a container. Various seasonings such as chopped preserved mustard greens, salted vegetables, crispy soybeans, crispy peanuts, and scallions are sprinkled over the rice tofu along with the broth, according to individual taste preferences.
