Is dried bean curd skin?

dried bean curd

Fu) is a specialty of Northeast China, also called "Northeast Dried Tofu", also called (bean skin), which is a kind of tofu product pressed into thin slices. It is not only different from the bean curd skin and thousand pieces produced in the south, but also different from yuba and dried bean curd (dried bean curd in the northeast is thinner than thousand pieces and can be eaten raw and cooked).

Bean curd skin is a traditional bean product in China, and it is a kind of food made of beans. There are many famous dishes in the south and north of China. Bean curd skin is flat and sweet, and has the effects of clearing away heat and moistening lung, relieving cough and resolving phlegm, nourishing stomach, detoxifying and stopping sweating. Bean curd skin is rich in nutrition and high in protein and amino acids. According to modern scientific determination, there are 18 kinds of trace elements such as iron, calcium and molybdenum necessary for human body.

Extended data

Tofu skin has two different names:

First, the natural oil film formed on the surface of soybean milk after boiling is picked up and dried to make bean curd skin, also known as "oil skin", "yuba", "bean curd skin" and "bean sprouts". This entry will be marked with "oil skin" to distinguish the meaning;

Second, the pressed bean curd skin (thousand pieces, dried bean curd) is similar to dried bean curd, but thinner (obviously thicker than the oil skin, which can be regarded as ultra-thin dried bean curd), slightly dry, and sometimes salted, and the taste is different from that of tofu. In order to distinguish the meaning, the entry will be marked with "thousands".

Although both of them are called "tofu skin", they are quite different in shape, composition, taste and cooking methods. But for example, Shanghainese are vegetarian chickens and ducks. Vegetarian chicken rolls into thousands, and vegetarian duck rolls into oil skin.

"Oil skin" and "thousand pieces" are common bean products, but interestingly, their terms are often annoying all over the country. I've heard of bean skin, bean skin, bean skin, tofu, thousand pieces of tofu, white leaves, bean sprouts and dried tofu. In Anhui, Hubei and other places, "oil skin" and "thousand slices" are common bean products, and "oil skin" is the local bean curd skin.

Interestingly, in some areas in northern China where "Qiankuai" is called tofu skin, the locals actually don't eat "oil skin" but only "Qiankuai". In the northeast, they eat thousands of "dried tofu". In southern Fujian and other places, the "bean curd skin" they eat actually includes two kinds of bean products: "oil skin" and "yuba". Hunan generally has "bean sprouts" (yuba), "thousand pulp skins" (100 pages) and "soybean oil skins" (oil skins).
