Vegetarian Meat Floss
Cut tofu skin into thin strips and deep-fry to dehydrate, resulting in a fluffy, tender texture that resembles meat floss.
Ingredients
tofu skin
1
MSG
1 g
salt
2 g
Instructions
1
Julienne and Season
Wrap the tofu skin in a damp cloth and let it sit for 10 minutes until it softens. Spread it out and wipe the surface clean with a cloth. Then cut it into very fine threads with a knife. The threads are usually better when kept a bit longer. Dissolve the salt and MSG in a small amount of hot water.

Deep-Fry
Heat a wok over the fire, add 300 g of oil, and bring it to roughly 50% hot. Loosen the tofu skin threads and gently drop them in. Fry for about 10 seconds. When the oil surface becomes calm and quiet, remove the threads and spread them out on a plate. While still hot, sprinkle with the prepared salt water.
