    My favourite: Stinky Tofu. Yummy.

    Today Tiffany's experimental kitchen will be introducing a special Taiwan delicacy.

    Stinky Tofu
    Stinky tofu is a form of fermented tofu, which, as the name suggests, has a strong odor. It is a popular snack in East and Southeast Asia, particularly Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, and China, where it is usually found at night markets or roadside stands, or as a side dish in lunch bars.

    It is a trademark road side dish in Taiwan. Got one stall right out side my aunt's place. Every other night brother and I will go and buy some for supper. Darling was so amazed I love this delicacy. Hahaha. He said he will not kiss me if I ever eat that again? Oh well. WHo cares? i am going to feed him some the next time when I have the opportunity.

    Stinky tofu seriously speaking really do smell stinky. But the more stinky it is the better it taste. Some time ago in Taiwan, one shop's stinky tofu smell like....shit shit. Really smell like shit...but taste like heaven. Nowadays got a lot of flavour too. Like spicy stinky tofu, stinky tofu steamboat , BBQ stinky tofu. etc. I am getting hungry.

    The following was one bought from night market in Malaysia.....Though it said: Taiwan Chou Tofu but.....it smell like one but taste like eh.........rock. Grade: 1/5. The pickled vege and sauce is quite ok. The main thing stinky tofu....yucks!!!!!!

    It was packed nicely, clean and well.
    Thus I am still searching in Malaysia for delicious stinky tofu. SO that I won't have to fly back to Taiwan to taste it.

    Talking about stinky tofu, it lead to my find of an amazing TV program.

    Hope everyone enjoys watching this program as much as I do and get to know Taiwan better. If got chance go visit Taiwan.
