It can also be cold mixed, boiled and made into soup. Today, to make a Sichuan style tofu is also the most common way, that is, "Mapo Tofu", which is also a representative food in Sichuan.

Note: features: red and bright color, fragrant smell, hot and spicy, tender and smooth taste, rich taste, appetizer. Warm tips: 1. After diced tofu, you'd better not scald it with boiling water, just soak it with light salt water, so the tofu will be smooth and tender, otherwise, it will be too tough and taste bad if boiled with boiling water. 2. It's better to buy some tender tofu. This dish is not suitable for making old tofu. It's not suitable for making too tender tofu. It's only good if the hardness is moderate. The baked Mapo Tofu is the most authentic if it's smooth and tender but not broken. My experience is that it's OK to buy Southern tofu in Beijing, but agar tofu is too tender and Northern tofu is too old. Therefore, southern tofu is the most suitable for making Mapo Tofu. 3. Mapo Tofu is not suitable for being too spicy in the north. It's OK to use 30g of Douban sauce. While Sichuan master used 50g of Douban sauce to make a kilo of tofu. I think it's too spicy, so it's a little less. The taste is very suitable.
