FERMENTED TOFU

According to several culinary writers, fermented tofu is in the same league regarding taste and mouthfeel as cheese.
This is because of the breakdown of proteins during the processing. Just like cheese.
Methinks they’re blowing it out of their ear, and may never have even tasted fermented tofu.

A comparison has even been made with blue cheese.

Okay………

I challenge anyone to serve 南乳 at their next gallery opening along with the paté and chardonnay.
Let's see what the reaction is.

[南乳 (red fermented tofu): naam yu - literally translates as 'southern titty', but 乳 also means a fermented tofu product.]

For the sake of the southerners, I hope that "southern titty" doesn't have the same mouthfeel and taste as blue cheese.

Many years ago, I lived on a remote island in the Pacific. Aside from heavy drinking, there was little to do to break up the tedium. A group of ex-pats began a little game called "mystery grocery". We would buy an unrecognizable product labelled in a foreign language and pass it around the table, daring each other to eat it. I still remember Dr. MarK throwing up in my sink after trying the fermented tofu.

Ah. Memories.
