History

Tofu or doufu (Chinese: ??, dòufu) is thought to have originated in ancient China during the Western Han Dynasty. Chinese people have developed and enriched the recipes for tofu dishes on the basis of their own tastes, such as mapo tofu, stinky tofu, pickled tofu, steamed tofu and uncongealed tofu pudding, etc.

Traditions

Northern Chinese cuisine

In northern China, douhua is often eaten with soy sauce, thus resulting in a savory flavor. Northern Chinese often refer to douhua as doufunao (???; dòufun?o; "tofu brains", often shortened to ??; dòun?o). Local Beijing people usually eat doufunao for breakfast together with eggs or youtiao (fried dough sticks). Doufunao can be found at breakfast stands along the streets in the morning. Other times it is hard to find outside of a restaurant.

Sichuan cuisine

Douhua in Sichuan is often made without any sugar at all, then served by carrying pole or bicycle vendors with a number of condiments such as chili oil, soy sauce, Sichuan pepper, scallions, and nuts, and is sometimes eaten along with white rice as well.

Hubei cuisine

Douhua is served with sugar in Hubei. It is referred to as either doufunao (Simplified Chinese: ???; Pinyin: dòufun?o) or doufuhua (Simplified Chinese: ???; Pinyin: dòufuhu?).

Cantonese cuisine

In Cantonese cuisine, daufufa (Chinese: ???; Cantonese Yale: dauh fuh f?) is served with sweet ginger or clear syrup, and sometimes as a mixture with black bean paste, and sometimes also with coconut milk. Traditionally it is made in a wooden bucket, and sold as wooden bucket tofu pudding (Chinese: ?????; Cantonese Yale: muhk túng dauh fuh f?) as part of dim sum cuisine.

Taiwanese cuisine

In Taiwanese cuisine, douhua is served with sweet toppings like cooked peanuts, adzuki beans, cooked oatmeal, tapioca, mung beans, and a syrup flavored with ginger or almond. During the summer, douhua is served with crushed ice; in the winter, it is served warm.

Southeast Asian cuisine

Philippine cuisine

In the Philippines, fresh silken tofu served in sweet brown syrup is known as taho and sold by hawkers in the mornings, usually door-to-door and in public plazas, or outside churches. In some regional variations, taho is often served with sugarcane syrup or strawberry syrup.

Indonesian cuisine

In Indonesia, it is known as Kembang tahu or in Java as Tahwa derived from the Min Nan name Tau Hwe, or Wedang Tahu (Wedang means hot water with ginger, Tahu means tofu) and is usually sold by hawkers. It is served warm or cold with palm sugar syrup that has been flavored with pandan leaves and ginger.

Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine

In Malaysia and Singapore, it is more commonly known by its names tau hua or tau huay in Hokkien, or by the Cantonese name (tau fu fa), with the Cantonese variation being more common in Malaysia. In Penang, the common term is tau hua, due to Hokkien being its dominant local Chinese language.

It is usually served either with a clear sweet syrup alone, with ginkgo seeds suspended in the syrup, or in a sugar syrup infused with pandan. Alternatively, it can also be served with palm-syrup (Gula Melaka).

Thai cuisine

In Thailand, it is known by its Min Nan name taohuai (???????). It is usually served cold with milk and fruit salad, which is known as taohuai nom sot (???????????, literally "douhua in fresh milk") or taohuai fruit salad (???????????????), or served hot with ginger syrup, which is known as taohuai nam khing (?????????????).

Vietnamese cuisine

In Vietnam, it is known as tàu h? n??c ???ng, tàu h? hoa or tào ph?, ??u h?, tàu h?. It varies in three regions in Vietnam:

  • Northern region- it is served with sugar, chia seeds. It is enjoyed as warm in winter and cold with ice in summer.
  • Central region- it is cooked with spicy ginger. Sugar is added. Douhua pieces are usually unshaped because of their softness.
  • Southern region- it is served warm with lychee and coconut water. Ginger is optional. Douhua pieces are more firm than those in the North and the Central.
