Method
- 1 Soak the box of soft tofu in cold water for 10 minutes, then gently invert it onto a plate without cutting it.
- 2 Keeping the whole block of tofu face down without cutting it is the way to prevent it from breaking, as soft tofu is very fragile and easily crumbles.
- 3 Tilt the plate for 5 minutes, then drain off any excess water.
- 4 Pour hot oil over crushed dried chilies to make chili oil, then mix with soy sauce, black vinegar, and sesame oil.
- 5 Pour the sauce over the tofu blocks instead of mixing them in.
- 6 Sprinkle with diced century eggs, shredded pork floss, chopped scallions, and roasted sesame seeds, then serve immediately.
