【Braised Tofu with Dried Shrimp】
by MaomaoMom
Tofu has been used in Chinese cuisine for over two thousand years. It has gained popularity in other parts of the world because it is a low-fat, cholesterol-free source of protein. Tofu is versatile and takes on the flavor of the spices or sauces. It can be fried, braised, or cooked in soups and stews.
When I talk to my Canadian friends about tofu dishes, I often hear comments like “Tofu is healthy and low in calories. But I don’t like it because it tastes too plain.” Well my friend, I can assure you that tofu can be very delicious. This savory dish goes well with rice.
