    1. Buy tofu and soak it in light salt water for a while. 2. The tofu should be blanched in water to remove the astringent taste. 3. If you want to cook tofu without breaking it, try not to use a spatula. You can shake the pan instead of stir-frying. 4. Add white sugar early, which can remove the strong sauce flavor of Pi County Douban. You can put more or less according to your personal preference.
