TAU FU FA


  My favourite food is tau fu fa. It is a chinese dessert made with very soft tofu. It is also referred to as tofu pudding and soybean pudding.In Singapore and Malaysia it is more commonly known by its names tow huay or tau huay inMin Nan, or by the Cantonese name (tau fu fa) with the Cantonese variation being more common in Malaysia, in fact it is almost exclusively known as tau fu fa there while tau hueyis generally associated with Singapore. In Penang, the common term is tau hua due to theHokkien roots of the local Chinese dialect.It is usually served either with a clear sweet syrup alone,  The same syrup is used to flavour soy bean milk drinks, known locally as tau chui in the Hokkien tongue or tau jeong sui in the Cantonese tongue, usually sold by the same purveyors, with the option to add grass jelly to the drink.with ginkgo seeds suspended in the syrup, or in a sugar syrup infused with pandan.Lastly,I hope can make tau fu fa at home one day
