Fermented white bean curd, or fermented tofu, is a soybean-based preserve used as a condiment in Asian cooking. The curd is cut into rough cubes and pickled in brine, giving it a long shelf-life. The fermentation technique, based on old rural methods, involves aging the bean curd in dry rice straw for a few weeks and then bottling it in strong alcohol with spices. The pungent, farmyard, cheese-like aroma, and creamy texture brings authentic flavours to dishes when used (sparingly), or as a way of enhancing sauces. Product formulations and details may change.
