As someone who grew up eating fu yu (fermented tofu), I’m kinda offended by the misrepresentation of this ingredient. Firstly, this isn’t stinky tofu. They’re 2 different ingredients that are used very differently. Second, fu yu is not meant to be eaten by itself. It’s meant as seasoning and is often used as a base to sauces. What she did was the same as eating a spoonful of fish sauce or marmite.
Actually, it depends.... I'd really saw someone from the northern part of china eaten it by raw. I was super shocked as its too salty for me. And the one in this TV show is really stinky fu yu. There are 2 different fu yu. You can search online and will able to find it.
Have never seen that type of fermented tofu being eaten raw like that before 😶. I've always used it mashed up with minced garlic and cooked as a sauce base. Stinky tofu is usually a deep fried street food , and is made of larger pieces that isn't so soft...
theres actually different types of stinky tofu hahahaha, the soft fermented one that's like a curd is beijing style in this video is usually eaten with porridge and the taste is pretty similar to the duck eggs but the texture is way softer. The deep fried street food one your think about is more popular in taiwan as a street snack but smells exponentially worse because it is deep fried
@@blackassassinknight um, re-read the first part of my post. I have a jar of the soft kind in my fridge right now, but we call it "fu-yu". The street food kind, which is more commonly called "stinky tofu" is "chap tofu"
@@blackassassinknight k, I was rushing to work with that last reply. I was just saying I'd never seen it before, not that it wasn't a thing. But with porridge would be different then straight up, right? Wouldn't it be like the century eggs, where they're gross by themselves but delicious in congee? I was using some tonight and I checked the jar (craving despite the reaction on the video). Looks like the English name for the soft jar type is "wet bean curd"😂
@@chip7486 I think it makes a smell a bit less intense hahahaha but I always dunk the tofu in my porridge vs eating it straight up and then eating a spoonful of porridge although my parents did enjoy it by itself so maybe not loooool 🤣
I try to be as open minded as possible when it comes to food but if it the smell is too strong, then I can't do it. That husband wanted nothing to do with that tofu! 😂
Wow she put a whole block of fermented tofu in her mouth😮 I don’t know what kinda of chef she is but 腐乳 is not stinky tofu. You don’t eat it straight up like this. Use it in stir fry dishes or eat it with plain rice congee. And what she says about dark soy sauce is also wrong, dark soy sauce has flavor too, it‘s less salty and a bit sweet.
@@WL-cu2ek ah you’re right. I couldn’t read the text on the jar because they blurred the logo/label. It looked like fu yu by appearance. Learned something new today.
When my mom makes sweet and sour pork, we use haw flakes for the sauce as well. It adds a unique flavor that is sweet and sour, and it tastes amazing! However, I think this is only for the Cantonese style, because I think the Northern style doesn't use it.
Yeah, This is misinterpreted so bad. First of all, you obviously don't know what you are talking about. It is fermented tofu. It is usually very salty and you should not eat it in one bite like that. This snippet just insults Chinese culture. You're supposed to have little bites or sampling with plain rice congee or rice.
You don't have be so offended over this like what did she say that offended u so much??? And okay fermented tofu is eaten with other things but if she wants to eat it alone and in one bite like that then let her do it

My mom eats it with rice, it’s not supposed to eat plain I agree. I can’t stand the taste but I love the texture
That haw flakes taste so delicious. Usually we use it for cake or just eat it as a snacks. Sweet and sour.
Now I know that snack from China... In Malaysia we familiar with this snack
Oh hayoung! Why are u here? Lmaooo ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
It’s been so long since I’ve seen haw flakes. Used to eat a ton and of it back in grade school. 😂
That’s not stinky tofu… that’s preserved bean curd. It’s not meant to be eaten by itself like that.
Haw flakes is so delicious, i always eat it as a snackk

Fermented tofu is like a strong, stinky cheese. I’m Southeast Asian Chinese and I have it with plain congee
In Vietnam, we use it as dipping for goat meat.
I saw hayoung I clicked!❤❤❤
same. been tricked!

Same here , I haved eaten many things that we in the Western society deemed strange but I can't eat anything that smells strongly stinking.

There's the color red one, i believe that other one is sweeter, it's delicious if you mixed it in soy stewed pork or pork hocks
