什锦豆腐 Tofu Medley

Pinyin: Shí Jǐn Dòu Fǔ

Well I contemplated not blogging about this dish because it's not something I recommend. I've had decent versions of this dish, but this one isn't at all. It's got loads of MSG, is far too slimy even for me, and it's got no flavor to speak of.

If you are really interested in it, as you can see it's just tofu, carrots, and peas. Occasionally other things are added, say shrimp or bits of meat.

I guess if you are a fan of tofu give it a try, it's possible you'll like it, but don't get your hopes up. The name shen jing dou fu simply means that it's tofu with everything else, so it's usually composed of all the stuff that's just laying around in the fridge.
