Step 1

Wrap the plate with plastic wrap to prevent oil on the plate (once there is oil, it will not ferment), and put the washed tofu in the plate wrapped with plastic wrap.

Second step

Wrap the cutting board with plastic wrap and press it on the tofu. Press a bowl of water on the chopping block. Press the water out of the tofu. Pour water once every half hour, four times.

Step five

Wrap it in tin foil, not too tight. Tofu is fermented in the shade for three days, and the tin foil is opened once a day to change the air. There will be mucus on tofu in three days. If the temperature is high enough, there will be yellow hair, which means that the fermentation is successful, but if there are black spots on the tofu, it means that the fermentation has failed and should be thrown away.

Step 6

After three days, wash the fermented tofu and fry it in the oil pan until crisp and golden. Self-fermented tofu is not as smelly as the one bought outside, but it tastes crisp, fragrant and healthy!
