There are only so many trotter dishes in Chinese, mostly called for simmering in sweet soy sauce for a long period of time until the trotter becomes completely soft and tender.
This particular recipe uses fermented tofu instead, it gives a very distinctive fragrance and taste.
I made this dish for our Christmas party the other day, when served with the steamed buns brought by a friend, it was irresistible and everybody loves it!
元蹄的做法一般就是冰糖或红烧为主,换个做法做这道南乳元蹄。咸香好吃,聚会的时候就着朋友带来的金丝馒头,异常受欢迎呢!
