Cooking Tips for Huifa Frozen Tofu
Thawing: Soak in cold water or thaw slowly in the refrigerator. Avoid hot water, which will make the tofu break easily and weaken its soup absorption ability.
Water Squeezing: Squeeze out water thoroughly after thawing to keep the pores fluffy and double the soup absorption effect.
Durable Cooking: Adopting mature production technology, Huifa Frozen Tofu never falls apart during long simmering and becomes more flavorful with prolonged cooking, ideal for long-time stewing and braising.
