When I first started working as a chef, I read a book of tofu dishes made by a master. It was lifelike, amazing and unbelievable.
After more than a year of playing delicious food, I slowly began to realize that making such technical dishes is not difficult. When I have free time on weekends, I can make this "orange juice and chrysanthemum tofu". After all, amateur is amateur. Although it is not as beautiful as the master's, it is enough to entertain myself!
"Orange juice chrysanthemum tofu" has a crispy outer layer and a tender inner layer. Coupled with the flower-like decoration and the sour and sweet taste of orange juice, it is endless aftertaste.
It is not difficult to make jade tofu into a chrysanthemum shape. As long as you master four tips, I believe you can do it. What are you waiting for? Let's act quickly ~~
1. The knife used to cut jade tofu must be sharp, otherwise the jade tofu will easily break.
2. You can put Yuzi tofu in the refrigerator and freeze it for an hour (it is easy not to freeze), which will make the internal organization of the tofu tight and make it easier to cut.
3. When cutting the chrysanthemum knife, you must do it in one go, and you must not pause halfway, otherwise you will easily lose a shot.
4. When frying the cut chrysanthemum tofu in the oil pan, be sure to place it carefully. When the bottom is fried until the bottom is set, use chopsticks to slowly spread the chrysanthemum tofu outwards to form a chrysanthemum shape, and fry it for a while to form a crispy outside. Just tender inside.
